The Buckeye State


I'm not talking about football (frankly, not a huge fan of the Buckeyes but don't hate me) or even whatever  buckeyes really all.  In my mind, buckeyes are the absolute BEST Christmas cookie and nobody makes them like Aunt Louise!  Anyway, here are the pictures from Grace's first trip to the Buckeye State.

Gigi flew out from Colorado and drove with us to Ohio.  It was about a 9 hour drive and Grace did great!  We arrived in Kettering in time to catch the end of Meredith and Caroline's tennis match at Gigi's high school!
Grace meeting her great-grandmother.



Grace as her Gigi at Smith Gardens, a place Gigi used to visit when she was a little girl.

With Great-Aunt Alice

Four generations
"What is this green stuff?"
"I think I like it."
Second cousins.  Grace apparently looks a lot like Meredith did when she was the baby, especially in the eyes.  They even have matching birth marks!


Next up...Cincinnati.

"See, Uncle Joe, I've got that Italian blood.  I talk with my hands too."
"That's just the way it is."
Grace and Alec

Climbing up to the fort to get a feel for boy life.  I guess they don't have a rule about ruffle socks and pink shoes in the fort!

Mitchell, and Alec, you guys should use this picture as a chick magnet.
"Look how great we are with babies!"

The girls

What a pretty dog!


Watching football with Aunt Lou


Touchdown!  :O)
Grace is ready for a puppy.
