Trip to Ohio

Last weekend, we went to Ohio to see Mike's little sister, Maria, perform in "Into the Woods" A comical play weaving together several fairy tales. This is her singing her solo. She was the baker's wife who wants a child, but who also wouldn't mind having a prince. The Hansen household is never boring. For example, I came home from shopping with Mama Hansen to find Lydia dressed like a superhero. Or, when I came into the living room to discover she had been given a sack full of chocolate chips which she was greatly enjoying- as evidenced by her messy face. Probably the most creative thing I saw while I was there was watching Lydia swing on the punching bag. Aunt Kimmy tied blankets around the bag to create pouches for her nieces to sit in and then she proceeded to swing them in the bag. I don't know if Lydia really liked it or not. She sat straight faced almost the whole time. She didn't seem to mind it either- Nor do we mind visiting the Hansen's. It was a great weekend.
