Home!

We said goodbye to the beach yesterday morning and made our long drive home safely. We drove around 12 hours so I am pretty beat today. The two little girls did great and Maddie kept talking about going back to the beach the whole way home but she was so happy to see her Daddy.

I was determined to get a photo of the big bees that were hanging out on the tree outside our balcony. Anyone who knows me knows I am scared to death of bees of any kind. I know, I know if you leave bees alone they won't bother you but I don't believe it. LOL So it took tremendous courage on my part to get this close to them. I really wanted better shots of the bees but I guess I don't have the right type of lens for my new camera to get some good close ups.

Before we left we tried to get a photo of the girls to submit to our local township newspaper(they print photos of people on vacation holding the front page) but as you can see that didn't go very well. LOL But I am going to send it to them anyway and see if they print it.

And on the way home we just had to stop at a Cracker Barrel. Does anyone else like to stop there when they go on a road trip? It's a great place to let the kids wear off some energy and as you can see Maddie had fun playing checkers. So we made it home safe and sound but like I said I am just plain wiped out today. I am spending the day unpacking and doing laundry so I probably won't be around to visit everyone till early next week but I hope you are having a wonderful weekend! It's a beautiful weekend here in Ohio, it almost feels like Summer! And I didn't forget some awards I have been givien and my beautiful giveaways I won, I just want to do that post when I feel more like myself and not like a zombie! :-)
