Baby's First Trip


Baby Madson made her first trip this weekend. She went to visit Uncle Chris and Aunt Gina in Indianapolis! It was a 7.5 hour trip there and 7.5 hour trip back. It was definitely worth it, though! It was nice to get out of town (ok, the state) for a weekend and just relax. We got our hotel room two hours before arriving in Indy and got the last room at the Crowne Plaza. The Crowne Plaza is RIGHT in front of Lucas Oil Stadium (home to the Colts) so I was pleased!! When we got to our room (at around 1145p) we found two full sized beds. Kory barely fits in a full size bed himself, so we had to sleep in seperate beds. The next day we asked to switch rooms and the Front Desk Rep said all they had was a king facing the railroad tracks. We didn't care where it faced as long as we could share a bed! We walked over to Lucas Oil Stadium so I could show Kory around. He was more than thrilled to see the home of his rivals (he's confused and is a Vikings fan). We went into the pro shop to get Baby Madson her first Colts jersey. She now has a pink Peyton Manning jersey (that's her favorite player). She also picked out a blue Colts onesie.

Our tour of Lucas Oil Stadium was AMAZING!! We went on a tour of the regular seating, Press Box, Quarterback Suite, the Visiting Locker Room, and then the field. I'm not sure why we weren't allowed in the Colts Locker Room...I think they know I would hide in Peyton's locker!! Being on the field was wonderful! Kory and I got a great photos of the end zone. Kory even took a tiny chunk of the end zone! He's a keeper. Baby Madson had a great time on her tour of Lucas Oil Stadium.

We spent the rest of the day walking around and then we out for a nice dinner. After dinner, we met up with Chris and Gina and their friends on a pub crawl. I thought being the only sober one wouldn't be fun but it turned out be a lot of fun. We left at 8a and got home around 3p. It was a long drive, but we had a lot of fun on our "babycation". It was nice to get away for a weekend and just relax. We probably won't be able to do that much after Baby Madson comes!
