Indiana…we’re all for you//pt2
Our trip had a lot of memorable moments so far. Most of them being centered around the phrase, “I have to use the bathroom.” I guess that’s what happens when you travel with 6 kids. Ok…I’ll be honest, it was MY kids with the weak bladders. On the way to Indiana, my kids were introduced…
