Life has been busy for these newlyweds. Last month we went to Indiana to visit my family and catch up with friends. Thank you Christopher Columbus for "discovering America" and getting us a day off of work. There were two purposes to this trip: to experience harvest with my dad and to have a "Yay! We're married!!!" get together with Indiana friends. Well, everyone forgot to take pictures but it was so great to see friends and to introduce them to my HUSBAND. I love that word, and that man. And as for harvest, my dad was lucky enough to get his crops in early, but that meant no combine rides for me and Ross. Without further ado, this is what our trip looked like.
Ross got a wide angle lens just before the trip, and he had fun experimenting with it.
How cute are my parents? We went to Logansport for dinner and a movie. Ross caught this moment as we left the restaurant.
I am in love with this theater. So maybe it needs a little love, but it has such charm.
Sunday afternoon we visited the creek. This means we bounced around in my dad's truck as we made our way through the corn field to the woods along the creek. Of course, I was trying to get as much niece time as possible. :)
I think I could live next door to her and see her everyday and it wouldn't be enough. This little girl has completely won me over.
I wonder why she thinks Uncle Ross is silly.
Putting up a shock at harvest is a family tradition. For years, my sister and I helped my grandpa with it and have recently been helping my dad. Since the crops were in early this year my parents put it up themselves. But it brings me so much joy to see the littlest member of our family enjoying this tradition.
I joined the men for a little twilight croquet. I may not be good, but I look good doing it. Or not.
Enjoying the farm with the little one.
She's a farm girl just like her mommy. Let's just hope she listens when grandpa tells her to not go higher than second gear.
It's been a year and I still can't get over how beautiful my sister is as a mother.
I love my family.
