May Family Vacation

David and I both had vacation the week before Memorial Day, so we spent some time relaxing in Columbus and then visiting family and friends in Indianapolis.  I really enjoyed our "staycation."  David and I went for a time trial on the Jesse Owens Stadium at OSU.  A time trial is where you run around the track to time yourself at a certain distance.  David ran three miles all at less than 7 min a mile while I ran 1 mile in 8:36.  Not too shabby.  We also visited the Olentangy Indian Caverns, hiked at Highbanks Metro Park, and went shopping at Easton Mall.  David and I also went to this fabulous restaurant for breakfast called L'Appat Patisserie and Cafe.  Didi, the owner of the baker, was amazing and super nice, and he and David were best friends by the end of breakfast.  The food was a mix of French and African and some of the best things I have ever eaten for breakfast.  David was practically jumping out of his seat trying to get some of the pastries from the case.  Bad news though.  Didi is closing up shop in Old Towne East.  He will be reopening sometime later this summer in Clintonville.  So it looks like if we want a repeat on breakfast, we are going to have to wait a while.

We got in town just in time for my dad's birthday.  We celebrated with some birthday chocolate pie.




After spending some time on the southside of Indy, we headed up north.  I met with some friends in Carmel at Founders Park for a play date.

Eliana made a friend!  Giving Savannah a hug.

Interestingly, I thought Eliana would spend more time with our friends' son Camden, who is just 9 mon older than her.  However, Eliana was fast friends with their daughter Savannah, who is almost two years younger than her.

William with Josh.  These two are less than a month apart!

Boys having fun.
