My trip to Indiana last week was the best. However, being in Indiana reminded me of all the things I've forgotten about, since I moved away 6 years ago. For Oh Hey, Friday this week, here's five things I forgot about good ol' Indiana:
ONE. Spiders are EVERYWHERE! I used my brother's car while I was there and every time I went out to leave, I had to kill at least 3 spiders before I could even open the door. It was disgusting. One morning, there was a big one right above the door (pictured below). I ended up killing it with a fly swatter. The other picture is a mini tarantula (at least that's what I called it) in my mom's kitchen! The story of killing that bad boy is a good one. LOL
TWO. Indiana traffic jams consisting of one over-sized tractor taking up the entire road. This happened to me twice during that week, while I was on my way to my sister's house. Luckily, I wasn't in any hurry.
THREE. Spending time with family makes for a wonderful day. I forgot how great it is to wake up and have coffee with my mom, or go to my sister's house for the day and talk with her and/or the kids. It was nice having them 5 minutes away rather than 3,000 miles away.
FOUR. McDonald's breakfast bagel sandwiches. The southwest really needs to learn about these! I forgot just how good they really are. Unfortunately, they aren't on the all day menu, so I had to have my mom pick one up for me since I'm not an early morning person.
FIVE. Wedding planning is so much more fun when you're surrounded by loved ones; friends and family. I had so much fun planning with my mom, my MOH, and shopping with my nieces. They are so much fun now that they're older and it's fun getting to share this with them.
