A Day At The Zoo

A few weeks ago, Chris and I joined our friends Sarah and Addy for a trip to the Zoo. We had a great time looking at the birds, otters, sea lions, and kangaroos. We had a fantastic time and the weather was outstanding.

Kansas City Air Show

While my husband's parents were visiting we also went to the airshow. It was hot..but awesome. Chris did a lot better than I thought he would with the noise. He was so tired by the end that he actually fell asleep through the loudest planes of all..the fighter jets. Zach faithfully wore his headphones and said "I'm brave". Marie Louise is Steve's niece who visited from Germany and she had a great time seeing the planes and joking around with Zachary. He loved having her here. He actually listened to her when she told him how to behave. Maybe I just need a teenager around more often...

Even when he can wear the same size shoe as me....he will ALWAYS be my baby

Even when he refuses his baby spoons for a real one...he will ALWAYS be my baby

A Day At The "K"...Royals vs Twins

My husband's parents came to visit during the third week of August and we had a blast. They all went to the new Kauffman Stadium and watched the Royals host the Twins. Even though they lost, it was a really good game and they all had a lot of fun.
