A trip home to Indianapolis

We spent this past weekend in Indianapolis with Justin's family and had a wonderful time! We left Friday after work and made it home late but it was so worth it--we were greeted by Kathy, Mark and Sophie--their new Sheltie puppy!! On the way home we stopped in Columbus to get a delicious LaRosa's pizza...an Evoy family favorite :)

Stowers side of the family, minus Aunt Lisa, Uncle Mike and Uncle Steve

Saturday was our first Valentine's as a married couple <3 This day was especially meaningful to us...last year on this day we had our first conversation in over three years--the conversation that "got the ball rolling again." :) Justin went with his dad to the Methodist Men's Breakfast at church and enjoyed catching up with family friends. That evening we spent time with the Stowers side of the family---aunts, uncles, cousins and grandparents made for a great visit. Aunt Lisa even surprised everyone by bringing her and Mike's new addition over--they also got a new puppy! The puppies definitely kept us all entertained!

Sunday we went to church and then over to Grandma Jackie's to visit with the Evoy side of the family. We had a lot of fun playing Michigan Rummy--I learned pretty quick and was able to hold my own :)Justin and Dad

Monday morning we headed back to Cleveland (I had the day off and Justin was nice enough to take a vacation day). We stopped at a GAP outlet store and found some pretty good deals, too!

I am just waiting on Justin to get home from the dentist...we found one that takes patients in the evening---his appointment was at 7 (during my zumba class) and I am hoping that all went well!

Just received the link to "The Evoy Family" blog. What a wonderful way to keep connected! Justin & Tara we were so happy you came home for the weekend. We always look forward to spending time with our wonderful kids and we miss you so much when you are gone! Our new puppy Sophie is awesome! We celebrated Grandma Jackie's birthday at Kerry & Susan's house on Sunday - where Sophie and Marley played and played and played! They wore me out just watching them chase each other around the house. Sophie and I went home early and took a nap! Lauren is trying to come home in April - we'll find out for sure today! Must go for now - we'll check back often! Love you both!
