I’m in Indiana
Today is another Friday Story Time by Lia and guess where I am? I’m in Indiana with my mommy visiting Uncle Zac!
Ma, Pop, mommy and me drove up Wednesday January 5th, it was a long drive about 13 hours! We left around 3:30AM but I fell back to sleep about 5AM and slept until almost 11AM!! When I woke up we were somewhere in Tennessee and it was lightly snowing!
We finally made it to Lafayette Indiana where my uncle Zac lives. Mommy wanted to drive by her brother’s shop and wave to her friends. You might have read ma’s blog the other day about a Story Without any Photos, well that was a true story about what happened shortly after we arrived at our destination!
Zac was excited to see us and we went to his auto detailing shop. He also is a photographer so he took lots of pictures of all of us together. I love this one he took, we are all being funny! They will be great memories! He has a drone that he uses when he takes videos and he let me fly it! It went WAY UP IN THE SKY!! He also has a few soft dart guns (I guess he likes to still play at times!) and I had fun shooting them with him and mommy. Zac has so many toys, he even let me ride his electic scooter with him!
We went to Red Lobster for dinner and I had shrimp and crablegs, my favorite! I took some leftovers back to the hotel and had a bedtime snack of crab! This is a blog from last week where ma shared pictures of our delicious dinner and a huge platter of crablegs! http://themarthareview.com/picture-story-time/
When we woke up then next morning, I checked my phone and found out there was a McDonald’s right across the street from the hotel! I hurried to get ready and ma, pop and I got my favorite pancakes! We sat at the coolest table with circles that when you hit them, they change colors!
Later in the day we celebrated a late Christmas and Zac had fun opening all his gifts from mommy, ma, pop and me. After he finished opening gifts he pulled out his foam dart guns again and we were shooting them around his shop! See my new coat? It was so cold when we got up there pop bought me a heavy coat, I love the colors!
I was so excited the next day when we went to an awesome indoor mini golf and arcade that is glow in the dark! Pop is chatting with the big monster ghost! It was so much fun and Zac won me a stuffed rainbow sloth.
After golfing, we went to The Pink Walrus where they have the most delicious frozen yogurt. You fill your dish with your favorite flavor of frozen yogurt, then walk around and add toppings! Ma got rootbeer and marshmallow yogurt with raspberry, chocolate fudge and caramel topping! She said it was yummy! See the sloth Zac won me at the arcade?
Soon it was time for ma and pop to drive back home to South Carolina but not before we all went out to eat. Look at my cheese pizza! It had so much cheese and it was delicious! We all told pop to drive slow because the roads were a bit icy. I gave them a big hug and waved as they left. Mommy and I stayed to spend more time with Zac and some of mommy’s friends from when she was in school and we will fly home next Thursday. Mommy sent them a picture of a little note I wrote to ma and pop so they could hang on to it until I got home.
Ma said Snowball misses me and he’s been laying on the couch being sad. I FaceTimed him the other night and he was so excited when he heard my voice. I’ll see you soon Snowball! I’m having a great time in Indiana but miss ma, pop and Snowball!
There is so much more I’ve been doing this past week while I’m in Indiana with Zac, mommy and her friends! I’ve been to a Mexican restaurant and visited Big Air, a huge trampoline and jumping park. I wonder what will be next! Thanks for stopping by while I’m in Indiana!!
The time spent with the dear ones is the most worthy spent time…I love the photos from that happy and fun place and the little one sleeping in the car is so cute Martha.
Thanks Sinziana for going on the trip with us! Lia is the best little traveler!
Sounds as though a good time was had by all. Would have made my son’s day: Micky D’s, indoor mini golf and arcade games.
It was great to see our grandson Rachel and Lia is having a great time with him spoiling her! LOL
Wow, Lia, it sounds like you are having the most amazing time!
Zac sound like a cool dude to hang out with. I heard all about your crableg dinner. I think it’s wonderful how you enjoy your food!
That’s a huge sombrero you’re wearing at the Mexican restaurant!
Thank you for sharing your adventures!
Lia says, “Thanks Tamara, I’m having fun with Zac, he has so many cool “toys” and I love to eat! LOL”
What a fun trip! And you got shrimp AND crablegs? Lucky girl!
Lia says, “Those are my favorite Angie! Pop is going to take me to an all you can eat crableg restaurant when we get home!”
Road trips make for some of the best childhood memories. Sounds like it was a great trip.
Lia loves riding and her biggest part is yelling to pop everytime an 18 wheeler passes us! We had a great trip Shepherds Run Farm.
What a glorious adventure you had, Lia. With mom and grandparents to boot!
Lia says, “Thanks Roy! It was a long ride but fun. Indiana is so much colder than South Carolina but having a great time!”
What lovely photos. I enjoyed reading about all your adventures!!!
“Thanks Diana, I’m having so much fun with Uncle Zac!:
What a great trip. I’m glad you all had a great time. 🙂
It was a great trip Amanda.
