Visit to Ohio

Ok, I'm going to attempt to end my blogging break. Not that life is any less busy, but I do miss my blogging and my fellow bloggers. :) I'm currently sitting at Panera on a beautiful Sunday evening with full intentions of working some extra hours. However...my computer won't connect to my company's network. And I cannot do anything without the network. So...I figured as long as I'm sitting here with a chai tea and my computer, I might as well write a blog post. :) (Did you know that the letters of "post" also spell "spot"? I just accidentally typed "spot." It was very curious.)

Here are some way overdue pictures of my visit to Ohio to see my ONU (Ohio Northern University) girls. It was such a great time!

Friday night we went to Cheesecake Factory,
and my legs started aching. (An issue I've had since
I was a child.) I asked if anyone had any ibuprofen,
and Ashley pulled an entire first aid kit out of her purse.
It was pretty awesome.

Saturday we went to the Columbus Zoo.
I hadn't been to a zoo in years, and for some reason
I enjoyed it a lot more than I did when I was a child.
Animals are just so cool!!

The biggest bats ever.

This lion was absolutely gorgeous. It was probably my favorite in the zoo.

Sea horses!! This might sound crazy, but I forgot sea horses were real. Like in my mind, they were equivalent to unicorns. You can imagine my surprise when I found a tank holding an entire family of them. I was pretty much completely awe-struck.

This is what a sting ray's mouth looks like.

We were in an open area with these kangaroos.
I wish one would have come over so I could pet it.

Sunday we went to church. :)

It really was a great girl-filled weekend. I wish I could have more like it!
Love you girls!
