Memorial Day Weekend in Dodge City- Day 1

 We purposely left at nap time and it worked! Both kids were out within 30 minutes!


 For about 300 miles we saw A LOT of wheat!
 And close to Dodge City we saw hundreds of wind turbines. It was incredible!

 After dinner we drove to the Boot Hill Bed and Breakfast.
Kurt and Enid were awesome hosts and served us a 3-course breakfast every morning with fruit, fresh homemade pastries, eggs, bacon and potatoes, and pancakes the last morning we were there. We all had our own bathroom and it was nice to have the run of the house.

Mother's Day

 Grandma set up a tea party for the girls and their dolls after our cookout on Mother's Day.
 It was a hit! Even Granny Jo helped!
Audrey was very attentive to her baby Maggie.
 Christopher played ball with Papa.
 But curiosity got the best of him and he kept wanting to eat the babies' little cakes!
 Then we played in the park on this beautiful evening.
 And of course took a group shot of the moms and kids.

Very blessed.

Mustang Sally

 It's been so pretty outside so the kids took a ride.
 Still working on the steering...
 Christopher has the radio controls down pat.
Ride, Sally, Ride

Deanna Rose Farmstead

 Travis, Jackson, and Zoey joined us at Deanna Rose for a fun-filled morning this week!
 Christopher was so much fun to watch.
 He wasn't afraid of anything!

 We mined for gold.
 Christopher tried his best to ride the baby goats.

 He finally got one!


 Snack time!



 My little climber!
 Hi Zoey!

 A new addition this year, a gigantic wind chime!
 Then we went on a nature walk.
 And finished it off with the prairie dogs and
... koi.
Lots of fun and so glad we could all go together!

21 months and random

 Slowly but surely Christopher is picking up new words. Like: hello, door, baby, on (which means on and off). And he has 2 cadence like phrases that clearly mean: Here you go and Good job.


 Audrey got a cowboy hat from Grandma and now she wants to wear it everywhere!
 My cutie pies!
Christopher loves talking on the phone. He has full conversations and the only word we can understand is Hello!

Batter Up!

 Audrey has taken an interest in baseball so we got her a tee ball stand to practice.

 We're hoping to get her in a tee ball league this summer or fall.
 Christopher pretended it was a microphone!
Nice hit!

Group shot at Branson

I forgot to include this in the previous post!  :)
