The boys and I decided to make the most of Fall Break and travel to Indiana for a few days. Brad was elbow-deep in books - teaching himself Aramaic in just 6 weeks for a major test as part of his PhD process. So, it was a perfect time for us to skip town and have some fun...and leave Brad to study without interruption or the guilt of not being home with us.
So,
we I packed our bags and we took off in our mighty mini-van. We had borrowed several books on CD from our local library and
loaded up on snacks and drinks...we were set! The boys were well behaved and the travel was easy. We did spend about 45 minutes at a stand-still due to a semi-trailer accident. The boys and I talked about the book we were listening to and prayed for the people involved in the accident...and the wait didn't seem so long.
We arrived in time for some visiting, some dinner, and some sleeping. The next day, we headed to the Indianapolis Zoo. Our dear friend, Miss Lori, volunteered to come along with us. We nearly had the place to ourselves and enjoyed a great day! I was pregnant with the twins the last time we visited a zoo, so we were long overdue for some face time with the animals. The dolphin show was a highlight and the penguins were a huge hit, too. We can't wait to go back again.
