Trip to Ohio!

So in November the Turner family travels continued! We headed to Ohio to see my sister, Leslie and her family and we had a blast!! John Ashton was once again a great little traveler. John drove with us on the way up, stayed thru the weekend and then flew to South Carolina for work, so John Ashton and I had to drive home by ourselves later that week. He did great on the 8 1/2 hour drive home and we only had to stop once!! (Wow, I know!!) That being said I guess we will have to do it again sometime this spring...

We had a great visit and even got some Christmas shopping done. (Not much with 4 kids but hey we started:0). Campbell and John Ashton were so cute! It was funny to watch them interact with each other. Campbell would crawl away and then turn around to see if John Ashton was following him, which he wasn't because he was so enthralled with all their toys. I did however discover that we need to work on sharing...anytime someone touched a toy or had a toy that JA wanted he would cry, so Christmas with everyone should be interesting! Campbell taught John Ashton how to crawl on his hands and knees, to hold his bottle on his own, and that Cheerios are a GREAT snack! We had a great time playing with Houston and Avery Caroline too...It was great weather (most of the time) and we got to play outside some. It was a great week, and we can't wait to plan the next trip!

And now for the pictures that tell the rest of the story...

Houston riding his bike around the circle. Such a speed-racer!

Avery Caroline taking time out from running around the circle to pose for a picture.

Avery Caroline, me (better known as Aunt Ray Ray), and JA
She is such a pretty little girl who is growing up way to fast for me.

Campbell and JA in their matching pj's. So cute!!

Houston and JA in their matching outfits! He saw that John Ashton had the same outfit and wanted JA to dress like him too. Houston kept saying "Campbell, Ashton matches me today." Houston is such a sweetheart!

JA and Campbell playing...

and then taking a snack break!

Yes that is Leslie in the background with the remote to the remote controlled car that was scaring the babies!

I am not sure why they are upset in this picture...

But here I come to the rescue!

Crawling to find the other kids... at that point crawling on his hands and knees was new! Way to go John Ashton!

Sharing a jump rope...

crawling together...

and bath time together!
These two are going to be quite the pair.

Thanks Aunt Leslie, Uncle Jon, Avery Caroline, Houston, and Campbell for everything! We can't wait to see yall again at Christmas! We love yall!!!
