We just returned home yesterday after our weekend in Ohio for the holiday! It was such a great time visiting with my husband's side of the family. I couldn't wait to share these fun pictures from our visit. Hope you and your family had a beautiful holiday as well!
Thanks to
our dear friends who flew out to Peru for the holiday, we were able to rent their car from them, and make the 9 hour treck on Wednesday last week. Zion did amazing the entire car ride, snoozing a couple of times.
Zion enjoyed the company of her cousins.
Thanksgiving at the Baxtron's is always a memorable experience - my favorite foods this year were Dad's collard greens and hubs' cheesy green bean casserole. Mom also spoiled us with candied sweet potatoes! Yummy!
All the brothers were reunited for the Christmas holiday which meant a lot of laughter, loud discussion and trash talking - all in love of course!
After filling her tummy to the full, little miss Zion enjoyed apple pie ala mode while the adults played a bit of
Pokeno.
Zion's favorite thing to do over the weekend was grab the house phone and tell us she was having an important conversation or "just busyin'" as she liked to put it. We also did some searching for new Ohio State gear.
I got some new Ohio State socks (which will be great for crossfit ;) and we dressed Zion in her cheer gear for
The Game.
Jerry took me out to a couple of new places this trip - the first being
Adriatico's pizza. We had the deep dish pizza with beef and pepperoni...a big hit!
Game day was a blast - every one in the house was decked out in Scarlet and Gray as we cheered on The Ohio State Buckeyes to another victory completing their perfect season.
We finished our trip by having a late evening date at
Jeni's - seriously the best ice cream I've ever had in my life, and that is saying a lot! Then we stopped by the place where Jerry proposed to me 5 years ago on Thanksgiving.
How was your holiday? Did you travel? What was your favorite part of your holiday?
