March Travels: Photo Dump + Recap

This is one of those posts thats more for my memory rather than for your entertainment...sorry!

Anyway, March was nuts for me. As I'm sure you picked up,  3 out of 4 weeks I was out of town visiting family, and it was nothing short of awesome! So today, I am just going to share a bunch of photos from both of my trips.

The first trip I went on was a road trip out to my grandparents out in Georgia. It was a 12 hour trip that turned into a 15 hour trip because of stupid Texas traffic.

We went through several states that I can't even think of right now, but I know Louisiana was one of them...haha!

When we finally arrived, we went straight into adventure. My Aunt Tee, cousins, brothers and I climbed 2 waterfalls.

We hiked, swam at the lake, bowled and toured Point Park, a key point in the Civil War. 

We even snapped some family photos!

The week came and went so fast, the road trip home kinda snuck up on us. Good thing our route went right through West Monroe and we stopped at the Duck Dynasty Headquarters.

 We even saw Jase!

I was one for exactly one day before I packed up and headed to Ohio! Actually, it was nice, I didn't even have to unpack my suitcase.

My sweet cousin Will...this picture cracks me up! (That's homemade Mac and Cheese he's coveting)

I got to hang out with my Aunt Denise, Uncle Jon and my cousins for a bit. We had so much fun together, if you can't tell from that picture above! Hahaha!

Then, that weekend, we packed up and drove out to West Virgina to visit with my grandparents, my dad and other cousins. I hadn't seen them in 4 years....too long in my book!

That Friday, we went out to Dinner at the famous Wells Inn and after went to a Frank Sinatra show. For some reason, I don't think we took any pictures of this...bummer!

Saturday we went to an outlet store and had a blast trying on things...some to be featured here on WIWW.

All of us ladies, we really did shop until we dropped!

After the weekend was over, my Memaw, dad and his wife headed out to where he lives, Pittsburgh! I got to spend a week in the freezing cold!

We spent the week shopping and touring the city. Pittsburgh is beautiful!

Wednesday, we visited the Flight 93 memorial which was very moving. I'm glad that I can say that I've been there. 

ignore my face in this picture ^

Then on Thursday we drove out to Gettysburg! I can't find any pictures of that either for some reason, but it was a lot of fun. I was so happy to get to go because my Nana and Papa up in Georgia live close to the battle of Chickamauga  and Chattanooga, so I can now say I've been to three of the major battles of the Civil war... very cool!

Once again, the week flew by and it was time to head back to Ohio to spend my last few days with my lovely family out there again. (There needs to be a term to refer to Aunt, Uncle and cousins so I don't have to type all that LOL!)

I've never laughed and smiled so much, my cheeks literally burned...they all crack me up! We played this game until like 2 am one morning, it's so much fun, you should play it.

On my last day, my aunt took me to the coolest store ever: Big Lots. No joke, it's really cool! I couldn't believe that I had never really shopped there before. Not only do they have the coolest candy (Crush flavored licorice, anyone?), but their makeup section is to die for. The above picture is me trying on their hats :)

At the airport, I had tears in my eyes just thinking about all the amazing memories we made. It was such a fun month and I was sad it was basically over. I was sorta sad that I had to get back to reality (hello work!) and back into my routine. 

Thank you to each and every one of you who made this such an amazing trip! (You know who you are)
