Where we live

We live in a small city Southern Ohio. The rolling hills, and green valleys make this area a beautiful place to live. Our home is set in a wonderful neighborhood on a quiet street. We have several large trees in our front and back yards that are great for climbing and provide wonderful shade on those hot summer days. Oh, and yes, they leave us with plenty of leaves to rake in the fall! We have a large backyard that Jacob just loves to run around in! His favorite outdoor activity is pushing his dump trucks, collecting leaves and acorns in his truck, sliding down his slide and swining in his swing. We laugh as we're sure the neighbors think we look silly following him around with our cameras!

As for education, we know there is an excellent school choice, as Stephanie along with six others, started an independent, private school! The small class sizes, excellent curriculum and personal attention make this school the place to send your child in Chillicothe! The area has many community parks, playgrounds, and is close to numerous State Parks where we like to go walking, hiking or biking. We also enjoy taking Jacob to many bigger city events like museums, zoos and sporting events, which are close by in Columbus. We are very anxious for the newest "Hollar" to arrive so that he or she can join in the fun!

We enjoy the time that we have to spend together. We are so fortunate to live in a wonderful neighborhood full of kids and friendly adults! We get together frequently for the kids to play or to cook-out. Nearly everything we do we do as a family! We enjoy going out to dinner, taking trips to the mall, splashing around with Jacob at the pool and just spending time together at home playing, making cookies, taking Jake for a wagon ride,or making a Friday night pizza. We also understand the importance

of the occasional adult night out. Often we plan dinner and a movie, but find ourselves home right after dinner to spend some more time with Jacob before he goes to bed!
