Mikayla's First Vacation- Ohio and Chicago (Part One)

 
My husbands grandparents live in Ohio, along with many cousins, aunts and uncles. They had yet to meet Mikayla and a family reunion was coming up so we thought it would be the perfect opportunity to have Mikayla meet her family out in Ohio! We also invited my mother in law Michelle to come along so she could see her dad, stepmom and siblings! We are so glad she was wanting to make the trek out here with us!! It was so helpful having her in the back with Mikayla during the drive. Mikayla loves her grandma VERY much!! and we are so grateful for all Michelle does. We left on Thursday (June 6th) at about 10:15pm and drove straight through to Indianapolis, Indiana. John and I have a friend that lives in Indianapolis and w were able to stop, stretch our legs and visit with him. It was so good to see Dan and cannot wait to seem him again soon! We got to Ohio around 2:00 this afternoon and went straight to John's grandparents house.
 
 
 
Mikayla did FABULOUS! SOOO much better than I thought that she would do. This is her very FIRST vacation and time out of the state. She woke up around 3:00am when we stopped and got gas, took some bottle and went right back to sleep!
