February 16-20, 2011.
For Adam's birthday he got a paid day off o' work! We all should have a paid birthday day off! So we left and drove to Ohio where all o' us family were going to throw a surprise birthday party!
Off to Ohio...
Goofing around in the car...
I'd wave and smile at everybody we passed.
This is such a fun exit to say....WOOSTER!
It was a LONG ride...
Me waving at a truck as we passed it!
Poor Adam...
Adam is rolling his head here...
Me flirting with the truck drivers...
Poor, poor Adam...
As the truckers would drive by, I'd smile at them and show them the orange in my mouth. They'd laugh and wave or honk their big trucker horn...they probably thought I was 14 years old!!
More flirting...they'd wave too!
More flirting...they'd wave too!
The sun was trying to shine through...
Finally we got to Ohio, which set into motion the birthday plans...
In the morning, we headed off to "go shopping"...

Sweet Isaac ready to leave for the party.
Adam thought we were going shopping.
The ride was a bit long for li'l Isaac.
Haha...poor li'l guy trying to sleep and I take pictures.
After shopping, we left cause I was getting hungry...
So off to Fat Jack's Pizza

Adam's family knows the family that owns Fat Jacks. So it made the perfect place for everybody to meet up. We walked in and low and behold there was Gran & Pa, Nana & Papa, Cody & Erica & Eli, Uncle Dave and Aunt Di, Canon, Tessa, Uncle Ron & Aunt Brenda, Aunt Evelyn, all the family! They were all sitting in a section waiting for us to walk in the door and then they yelled, "SURPRISE!!" Adam was very much surprised and it was so fun!
Erica and Eli...
This one is a li'l better.
You are never to young to text.
The cutest crooked smile you ever did see.
Seth and Becky were supposed to go to a ski trip (which is where Adam thought they were), but the trip got canceled so they were able to come to surprise Adam!
What a NICE surprise.
What a NICE surprise.
Papa and Nana Finnegan!
Adam's "don't take my picture" face!
The next day, we had a birthday party for all the February and March birthdays...Adam, Hannah, Cody, and Me! YEAH for birthdays and family!
Hannah put the candles on the cake.
Can you guess which candle is for me?
Yup...the green candle!!
Yup...the green candle!!
The Trip Home...
Every time we travel home from Ohio it rains, snows, sleets, hails, or something! So why should we have expected this trip home to be any different!When we started home it was sleeting.
All o' our luggage...
It's a good thing we don't have kids, we'd have no where to put them!

Bathroom stall...funny story!
Had to take a picture because some li'l girl walked in on some old lady in the handicap stall. It was super funny cause the lady was saying, "I thought I locked the door! I'm not as young as I used to be!" I just laughed and laughed! Never a dull moment!

Still sleeting...

Just thought this sign was funny.
All sorts o' goodies...
Waiting at the rest station...
Watching it sleet outside...
It's kinda cool lookin'...
This gum was good!
Because o' the weather there were a lot o' wrecks:
We were only going 20-35 mph...
We were only going 20-35 mph...
Some girl spun off into the grass...
...3 car accident in the other lane...
...lots o' ambulances...fire trucks...and EMT personnel...
This girl sped passed us earlier...
Stupid young drivers...
Look at the ice on the mirror...
A car flipped on it's roof right in front o' us...
It was starting to pile up...
...we continued passing wreck after wreck...
...we continued passing wreck after wreck...
Two-car wreck along the berm...
As it got dark the weather got worse.
It started to pour down rain...
...then a snow blizzard...
...snow began to pile up...
Snow...snow...and more snow...
...now driving 10-15 mph...
It was also FREEZING in our house!
Adam was surprised!
It was a great birthday and visit with family!
The 6-hour drive took 10 hours!
Wish family lived closer!
THE END!!!
