Ohio or Bust

Last month TJ, Isaac and I drove (9 hours) to Ohio to visit Miles (Cousin Anne, Meg and Brett were there too.

One of TJ's favorite TV shows is Man V. Food on Discovery channel, so naturally he was dying to go to Thurman Cafe which was featured on the show. For anyone not familiar with this program, it takes exceptionally large portions of food, or exceptionally spicy food for a restaurant to be featured on this show. Thurmans large portions, but could have done spicy with their buffalo wings.

Enter the Thurmanator (picture on left with my hamburger (that i could only eat 1/2 of) sitting on top a pile of fries on the right)

the menu description of the burger is-- Bottom bun, mayo, lettuce, tomato, pickle, banana pepper, 12 oz hamburger patty, bacon, cheddar, another 12oz burger patty, sauteed mushrooms and onions, ham (and there was lots of it) mozzarella and American cheese, top bun. Served with fries.

And who won in this challenge between man and food, you ask?

Man.

Hey, at least he didn't eat the fries... right?

The next day the boys did a little of this

While the us girls did A LOT of this...

with these 2 munchkins who look so adorable in their Halloween costumes, we had to dress them up early and take their pictures together! (Miles was NOT on board with this idea!)

Thanks to Megs and Brett for letting us come visit, and to Anne for always bringing along a good time (and being a good sport in putting up with us and learning to make baby blankets too!!)
