More on the vacation....

Well, we have been home for a week and a half, lifes been busy, it's way too hot to go outdoors and my internet for whatever reason is not allowing me to upload pictures. So I came to Rod's office with laptop in tow and plugged into his dsl and so here we go. Maybe we can finish out the vacation pictures. Many people have asked about Rod's foot. It's doing better. He was actually able to get a shoe on Sunday and go to church. But it was pretty tight. The swelling is going down finally after a week plus of pampering it. The doctor says it's not broken and he sees no fractures on the x-rays, so guess we are dealing with a major sprain. He's been on crutches and icing it up and just now able to walk and put some pressure on it. But too much walking makes it swell again and very painful. I have been the chaufer(sp) and he has been the backseat driver. YEAH!
Anyhow, below are pictures of when we finally got into Ohio. We went to Rod's Aunt Jeanie's first and made a few days of it. We enjoyed visiting and just relaxing.





Rod talking with his Aunt Jeanie



Meagan enjoyed stealing the wires to the croquet set and running away.



We bought the kids a cheap croquet set and they had fun hitting the ball around



Meagan thought Aunt Jeanie's sidewalk made of bricks was fun to run down



Aunt Jeanie had this old style pump in her back yard and the kids thought it was really neat.



Rod and the kids and his Aunt Jeanie went rollerblading. They have some hills so it was kinda fun to go down the hills on skates.



There was a play area across from our park site that the kids enjoyed.



At the state park we stayed at they had a treasure hunt the kids participated in. It wasn't anything special, but something different to do.



We went to a state park and camped overnight and the kids enjoyed roasting marshmallows



This is what Meagan thought of vacation. She was so tired she crawled up on the bench of the table in the motorhome and fell asleep and laid her head on some boxes under the table.

Poor Megan!
Thanks for the good food Sun night.
You are right, our poor neighbors probably thought they were the ones getting a vacation.

Glad to hear Rod's foot is somewhat better. Hope he's getting even farther down the road to recovery.

Loved your pictures of your fun vacation. It was great to see Greg, we grew up together in high school and he and Mark would always easily pack 3 or more big macs at mcdonalds on our class trips. LOL
