To Columbus and Now We Are Back!

This is the outline of our day today... it's been a long day, and only 7:14 pm!

6:20 am - I crawl out of bed knowing my alarm is going off in 20 minutes and I was thinking of everything I had to get around for the day!

7:27 am - Olivia and Aaron crawl out of bed too.... I did get her to sleep one hour extra by putting her in bed with Aaron!!

8:15 am - Out the door we go... the Garmin says that we would arrive at 10:45 am.

10:45 am - The Garmin now says 11:00 am... we did pretty good on time I think and that thing is a life saver... tells us when to turn right, left and so on...AWESOME!

11:00 am - Arrive at Britni's house and it looks so nice in person. They've really done a lot of work and should be very proud. Britni and Ember greet us at the door and Logan too... ha ha! Olivia is instantly interested in "where are we"... "who are you". Britni asked to hold her and Olivia had no problem with it... but she is also a pro now too!! The girls were so darn cute and I just loved seeing them in person. I was so excited this whole past week to finally get to see them and meet Britni. We've been emailing and commenting on eachother's blogs for almost 2 years!

12:00 pm - Pictures are done and I sit in front of there computer screen picking out my favorites...HELLO....they are all Great! Britni just did an awesome job I wish I coudl post them and so everyone! But we did a set of Olivia naked with just her hooded towel, the second was in an OSU outfit and she actually stood beside a chest for a couple, and then we did a plaid short outfit and Britni put some flowers around her....MY FAVORITE!!

12:15 pm - Out the door we go. I really wanted to stay longer but didn't want to intrude and we were supposed to meet our friends for the OSU game. I told them we probably wouldn't be leaving the photographers until 1 pm.... but we were early. We said our good byes and Britni said she'd let me know next time they come up to visit with Grandma and Grandpa VH. I told her that "I woud love that!!". I really would love to get the girls together.

12:45 pm - We arrive at "Roosters" and Sean and Elan were already there with great seats and it was so nice to see them together. Elan usually comes home alone and I hope that Olivia was able to rub off some baby potion on them... ha ha!! Elan would be an ABSOLUTE awesome mom! She has such a caring attitude and naturally nuturing sense about her. I wish they lived closer!

2:45 pm - We are on the road back to L-town! We get home around 5:30 pm and it was so nice to get home. Olivia ate really good, Sweet Potatoes, Apples/Blueberrys and some of her Yo-Baby yogurt! She got a bath and played and now she is sleeping. I am not surprised, she slept very little on the way down and back, and it was a little bit of a long ride for her. But I think it was so worth it. We got some FANTASTIC pictures and got to see friends we haven't seen in forever!

7:27 pm - Writing on my blog and thinking of making me something to eat... feelign a little rumble in my tummy!

All in all, we had a great day and I have 2 more days off! Aaron works tomorrow through Tuesday days...

Next weekend we start our roof!

Thanks for making the drive over, it was great seeing you. I love when family & friends make the effort to have me take pictures. I know it would be easier to just run to Sears. It really meant a lot though. Thanks!
I am sorry you didn't stay. I have had a really wild week and didn't plan things out as much as I should have. I figured you couldn't stay since you were meeting friends. Our girls were a bit of a disaster too after 2 days with no naps. lol

I posted Olivia's pics on my blog. I hope you love them!. The 1st 4 are the ones you ordered. I added the extras that I cropped & worked on too. Olivia is beautiful so it was really easy to do a photo shoot of her! Hope to see you guys soon!
