Today my cousin Scott and his family visited for dinner on their way back to Indiana. My Aunt Rose also came to visit.  How fun to see all of them.  We were so glad they made the time to fit us into the end of their vacation!

The kids had fun playing games and hanging out.

We had a great time catching up and it was nice to have Scott reassure me a little about Dominic’s summer training at West Point.  Always nice to hear from an “old” grad!

Miss Molly's

With our cute teapots.

While the boys were watching golf we were visiting one of our favorite places.  Miss Molly’s Tea Room.  I love their Cinnamon Orange tea, it's like drinking a red hot, absolutely delicious!We love going here for lunch, enjoying our tea, and then later shopping at the Root Candle store.  These are two not to miss places in Ohio!

Firestone Golf Tournament

AJ & Grandpa Teddy

My dad, Steve and AJ spent two days at the Firestone Golf tournament. They went for a day of practice and a day of the tournament. Great fun for all three of them.  

AJ & Ernie

AJ & Tiger

AJ was psyched on the practice day that he got Tiger Woods’ autograph and a selfie with Ernie Els. Apparently he asked Ernie if he could take a quick selfie with him and Ernie walked right up and put his arm around him.  Nice guy!

The Tribe!

Missy, Granny & Grandpa Teddy

Our summer trips to Ohio now include going to an Indians game. I love this since it was one of my favorite things to do in high school. In retrospect, by the way, my parents were way cooler than I thought they were back then.  They let me go, with high school friends, to Cleveland, a lot!

AJ has especially become a big fan, he just likes all things Ohio!  And really, why wouldn't he?

Rachel, Stefanie & AJ 

This year's game was Grandpa Teddy’s Father’s Day present, so we tried out the club seats. The seats were great!  The kids especially were not disappointed with the all you could eat food. AJ in particular took advantage of this perk!

The Circus!

Stefanie, AJ, "Uncle Sam" & Rachel

One of the first events Granny had planned for us in Ohio was a traveling circus. Since the kids hadn't been to one since they were little we thought, why not.  It was fun to watch and the acrobats were very entertaining, the kids also enjoyed the popcorn and cotton candy!  I think the kids liked having their picture taken with “Uncle Sam” the llama best.
