On my Old Kentucky Home...
We had such a great trip to Kentucky! The boys couldn't get enough of the "great outdoors". I have LOTS of pictures to show you...
Here is Brady playing at the Cincinnati Children's Museum. I couldn't get a picture of Jacob because he was too quick and busy to stay still for a second. Brady loved the water table and was able to play with his Gumps there. He did have a complete meltdown at the end and I ended up riding the escalator for about 40 minutes to calm him down. He loves escalators!
This little cutie is our nephew, Aidan. We were lucky enough to celebrate his 2nd birthday while we were there. Patrick, Jane and Aidan all came from New Jersey to spend the week too. It was nice to have everyone there. Aidan loved his cake. Jacob loved the hats!! Aidan also had LOTS of help opening his presents.
A couple of years ago Gumps built the grand kids a sandbox. I believe this was a daily activity for Jacob and Brady. Usually right before bedtime so we could put them in the shower afterward. They all played in the Gator. Jacob would drive Brady all over the place. Brady and Aidan would get in but, luckily, neither one of them could had the desire to actually drive!
Here is a picture of the O'Donnell's cabin and a view of the lake. The weather while we were there was perfect. The days were 80 degrees while the nights were cool 60's. Each morning we would see so many Blue Heron's fly around the lake and perch themselves on logs coming out of the river. In the evenings we would take a golf cart ride through the tobacco fields to see deer. One evening we say 17 deer!
On the last day we were there Gran and Gumps threw a big party with all of the family friends that they used to go camping with. Now all of the kids have kids themselves. It was fun to see everyone and to meet all of the new additions to every ones families. As you can see it looked like Tent City. Jacob had so many kids to play with and was completely exhausted by the end of the night. Brady loved to play on the cornhole sets. He and his Uncle Sean played while Aidan ran up and down the tops of the cornhole set.
Lastly, the sunset. Always beautiful. Kentucky is an incredibly fun place. Thank you to Gran and Gumps for showing us such a fun and magical time.
