2015 Summer: IN

Our last leg of the summer was a three-week stint in Indiana at my parents' house. It was nice to finally stay in one place for an extended period! We visited with lots of family, played lots of Euchre, had a few birthday parties, road a new roller coaster at Holiday World, caved and canoed.
2nd cousins: Tyson, Anastasia, Tanner, Emma and Talula
not quite as cute
Leaf, the pet turtle, was mercifully returned to the pond after just a few days
Leaf was almost too pretty to let go
Reed's 7th Birthday Party
4/6 Meunier cousins: Reed, Amelia, Anastasia and Talula
Pakistani-pride: Khaadi dresses from Lahore
Visiting Santa at Holiday World
Talula's infamous choke-hold method with Evie
Riding horses on Anastasia's 7th birthday
Uncle Brian
Homemade birthday cake and homemade ice cream
Talula is celebrated a few months early while we're at it
More 2nd cousins: Cole, Aiden and Olivia Susnjara at a Bombers' game 
Paddle-boating at Lincoln State Park
Spring Mill State Park
Everyone that went to SMSP, except me and dad

riding in Grandpa Meunier's "trunk:" this was a highlight for the girls
mist coming up out of the cooler caves
Blue Spring Caverns on a cave boat ride (we were in 'Cave Country')
mud along the cave's side and bottom
Aunt Lyndsie and Uncle Jeff provided us with a couple hour's paint job
a tent provided some out-of-the-house fun
which sometimes functioned as a nudist colony
we never did make it to sleeping outside
perfect heat relief: slip n' slide
after another painting session
2 ridiculous, but happy girls
