Part 2- The Water Gun Fight

 After a great cookout of Dodge City beef, we had a family water gun fight.

 Christopher held Steve's back up gun.
 Whachu lookin' at?

 Innocent sibling fun?
 Put 'em up!


 The girls ganging up on Jackson.




 Attacking Kristi with love!

 After all the fun it was time for a bath.

 And story time.
And goodbyes the next morning.

Day 3 -Part 1

 The next morning we took an hour long trolley ride around the city to see more sights.

 Dodge City processes A LOT of beef!
 One of the MANY cattle feed pens.
 Fort Dodge
 Christopher got bored and napped.
 Then we played on a train!
 Hi Zoey!
 Audrey was showing off her wooden nickel she got on the trolley ride.


 Then it was photo op time!

 Silly Travis and Steve!

 And we drove just outside of town to see where the Santa Fe trail used to be.



 We saw some cool sun dials.
 Kristi and Dad made their own sun dial. What time is it?
 It's time for airplanes!

More cute cousin time!

Day 2

 The next day we went to Wright Park Zoo. It was free! They had 45 animals and the kids had fun.
 Lemurs

 And as always Christopher had no fear feeding the goats.
 Or chasing the birds.

 For some reason this tiger has his sights set on Christopher. It was funny and unnerving at the same time wo watch him track my child's every move.

 F.M. and Christopher bonding while playing with rocks.
 Christopher was ready to go so he pulled the wagon all by himself!
 Then we went to the 9/11 Memorial which had a piece of the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. Lugene was strutting her stuff.

 The kids wanted to play in the water on the display.

 Then we went to the Boot Hill old time museum where we saw a gun fight and took an old time photo.



 Kristi, Erin and Zoey learned the can-can.

 Then we ended the day with some long-horned steer.
