Tae Kwan Do

The girls took a little Tae Kwan Do class last week. It was just 2 sessions to see if they liked it and if the teachers thought they could handle it. It was great. I am usually telling them to keep quite and not to hit things and keep their arms and legs to themselves. This class was the opposite of that. They were encouraged to yell, hit and kick. They didn't know what to make of it and were reserved at first but then opened up.

10 Days of Fun

Lilly stayed with us for 10 days and we could not have had a better time. Those kids were busy doing something all day every day. AW kept them hopping. At the end of the week we recapped what they did every day and it was an amazing list. From going to Como Town, The Angry Catfish, parks, Saints game and play dates. It was great to have her around for that long and I was really sad to give her back to her parents. She was a dream to have around and my girls had an amazing week that they will never forget.

Grandpa Jim and I watched the game from center field. The girls sat on the berm and "watched" the game. They are in the front row right behind the fence.

At one of the many parks..


I gave them each $10 to spend on whatever they wanted at the Saints game. They bought a slushy, a malt and chicken fingers with fries. They shared everything so it seemed like they got to buy more. Pretty clever.

LW and Mudonna.

Matchy, matchy, matchy PJ's. We even sent one home for Kate so she was part of the group.
I am filling in for Kate in this pic. Wish she was here..


We met in KC to give LW back to her dad. This is what happens when you leave the 3 of us alone without adult supervision. We end up at a coffee roaster trying on pilot outfits. LW was embarrassed of her dad and uncle.
This is on the roof of the coffee shop.
On our way out of the hotel. We have our own elevators!

More festivities

Just like last year, we went to Como Town for NW's birthday. But this year we have a special guest from Tulsa..

Here is Lilly practicing her driving skills at Como Town.

On her tail.

Three kids staring at a zebra.
At the conservatory.

Peace and quiet. They are having a coloring contest at Lucky 13.

Just the girls, no boys allowed.

I'm not sure how much of this donut she actually ate. It looks like most of it is on her cheeks.
