Amish vacation

We packed up the minivan and headed north east to Ohio's Amish country. On-line I found an adorable log cabin right on a lake full of fish (catch and release only). The kids had a blast! We toured an Amish farm, sat in a one room Amish school house, rode in a buggy and held all of their baby puppies and kittens.
One night we caught a frog and the kids put it in the hot tub and bathed with it (we cleaned out the tub)! Scotty and Ashley both caught a ton of fish. We could hear the clip clop of the Amish buggies go by as we fished off our deck. Nick had to tell the kids that they could wave at them as they went bye but not jump up and down yelling "look mommy, daddy, Amish"!!! They finally got used to seeing them everywhere and the excitedment died down.
One day we drove to Canton, Ohio home of the Football Hall of Fame. Nick loved it, as did Scotty. I'm worried that he's going to want to play football now. I was hoping that soccer would capture his heart! :) He did think it was a bit of a rough sport though...
We had a wonderful swiss meal (fonue...I was in heaven) and ended our trip with a morning at the Amish flea market. It was fun to shop alongside all of the Amish selling to each other.
And now...we are back to reality. Nick is finalizing his prospectus and has a meeting set up for the first week of September...pray for him, please!
Scotty and Ashley start school on Tuesday. We have Scotty's heart appointment at Cincinnati Childrens on the 2nd of September. I cannot believe that it has already been a year since we went through that whole thing. God is so good!
I have my 27 week doctors appointment on Monday. I think that they'll have me do the glucose test...yuck!
There you have it...the Hardman update! Have a blessed week!
