Indianapolis

Last week we went to Indianapolis for a garage door convention. I know what your thinking...."They have garage door conventions?" Yeah pretty much they have conventions for everything. While we were there we saw a muscle man, ball room dancing, and gamers convention all going on in the same building. So yeah there are garage door conventions.

We were invited by my in-law's to go now that Marshall is working for his Dad. We had planned for my parents to watch my kids. We ended up learning the hard way that Lynnlee needed to come with too. When we planned the trip a few months ago she didn't have favorites and went to babysitters without problems. Then a month later I left her and James with a babysitter and Lynnlee cried the whole time. I feel so bad for the poor babysitter because I had no idea Lynnlee would have a hard time and be such a Mama's girl. Crying isn't so good for Lynnlee's little heart so after that night I decided that Lynnlee would have to come with me to Indiana because I couldn't bare leaving her for 4 days and risking her crying a lot.

So we flew out Wednesday morning. Marshall did some planking while we were waiting in line to check our bags.
While we were in Indianapolis we saw the Indy 500 track. It's 2 1/2 miles around!

We walked along a beautiful canal that runs through downtown.
We went to the Indianapolis Children's Museum. It was awesome! I wish there was one like it in Utah so I could go every week.
We walked through the old Union train station that is now a hotel. There are hotel rooms in this train. Pretty cool idea!
My father-in-law's name is Dan so we had to take a picture of this vehicle that had his name on it.

The rest of the time we were around the convention. Lynnlee was a trouper!
