We wanted to go on last family trip with just Kevin, Braxton and me, so we decided to go on a little drive to Cincinnati. First we went to the aquarium, which was great! We all loved it, there were a lot of different fish to see and things to do. Then we went and checked out some of Cincinnati, went to the outlets, and out to dinner. When we got back to the hotel we went swimming, I think swimming was Braxtons favorite part he loved it. The bad thing is when you have so much fun in one day little guys don't get naps and go to bed REALLY late. The next day we had big plans to go to a museum and see dinosaurs and go to a park. Well we ended up going to the park and braxton was pretty ornery, but then to top it off we realized we had a nail in our tire. It was still inflated but we did not want to try to drive home on it so we tried to find a tire store that would get us in and get it fixed fast, however after about 6 tire stores and a hour and half later we decided we would risk driving home since all the waits were about 3 hrs we could be home in a hour and half. We made it home with out a problem luckily, then we took it to a tire store by our house and found out that the nail was just in the outside of the tire and had not punctured it. It made for an interesting adventure but it was a fun trip and we are always used to a little something going wrong when ever we go on a trip all you can do is laugh about it!

Cincinnati Sky line
Hanging out on the frog!
Braxton could turn the dial which would change the color, he loved this he wanted to do it over and over again!
Braxton loved watching the sharks in this tank I think we stood here for a good 15 min watching the fish and sharks go by!
Braxton LOVED touching the sharks he thought it was so neat, after he would touch them he would look at me with the biggest grin! He told me they were scratchy I always thought of them as smooth until I touched one and they are rough like sand paper!
The Jelly fish were one of my favorite things to see, they are hypnotizing to watch & with the lights they had on them they looked like they were glowing!
Braxton was a little afraid of this whale at first I had to show him it was fake before he would stand by it for a picture!
The things in the back ground are alligators not logs!
They had these tunnels all throughout the Aquarium it was really neat to see the fish swimming all around you! Braxton loved it!
Mom look a sting ray!

Wow! What a fun place to to see. Sounds like there is tons of great places to visit in Ohio, I hope that is the same for Cali. We haven't sold our home. It was under contract for a while and they backed out. Ugh! I'ts been hard because we don't want to rent it, being afraid they will trash it and it will be harder to sell. We are just being positive right now doing all we can to move it along....I'm coming out for Thanksgiving and staying the whole month of Dec. Jeremy will just come when school is out. Hows Kevin doing? Oh, I was going to ask you, how did you guys move all your stuff? Uhaul? Movers? did it yourselves???
Hey, sounds like a fun trip. I can't believe your 36 weeks already! Miss ya guys!
Hey, I recognize those sites. :) The purple people bridge & the newport aquarium were visited frequently during our summer in Cinci. Looks like we're headed out this coming Monday. Danny should get in touch with you guys. He's hoping to find a masters to boost his GPA. Do they have something like that at your school?
looks like it was fun! i am glad you made it home okay!
