trip to Ohio

Last week we went on an AWESOME trip to visit some of Grant's family in Ohio. We had so much fun! It was a great chance for the girls to have some bonding time with their cousins, aunts, uncles, and Grandma Barb. It was also the first time that any of the Zinns met Addie and it was our first chance to meet Baby Beckett. We're so grateful we had the chance to visit!


-bonding with Grandma Barb:

waiting for Barb to arrive (Emily's telling them to use their "binoculars")

she came bearing gifts!

first time meeting Addie

-we spent a lot of time playing at parks (including the one in the Goates' backyard)!

Addie's face!

that static!

collecting rocks

-the girls did some intense dress-up!

-we went strawberry picking and the girls made a strawberry pie with grandma

-The kiddos had a blast playing with Uncle Eric and Aunt Irene!

she had a tea party with Eric and wouldn't let anyone else join :)

-Emily discovered a love for trampolines

-And we just soaked up every minute together! It was so great for Emily to have the chance to get to know her cousins better! We miss you guys already!

I can't wait to watch these two grow up together! They're exactly one month apart, so we know they'll be great friends :)

and these two are only 7 months apart ;)

Grant and Ben took the girls to home depot, where they made their own trucks!

playing games after the kids went to bed

we tried Tom and Chee and it was delicious!

the grilled cheese donut sounded gross, but it was so good!!

we love Aunt Marnie!

s'mores!!

we hate goodbyes :(

Thanks so much for hosting us Amanda and Ben. We had an amazing time! Can't wait for the next Zinn family get together :)
