Spring Break Round 1


Our family piled in the truck with the Ranger in tow on Saturday morning, headed to Nana and Papa's house. The start of spring break was finally here! This was Claire's actual birthday day, so she got cake for breakfast and was pretty much assuming this trip was going to be all about her. We arrived in Wichita safe and sound, and celebrated Claire's birthday that evening with cake and presents. Sunday morning we went to the zoo with the Hooper family, and had lots of fun seeing the komodo dragon and gorillas (I miss that zoo!). Monday we went over to the Hooper house to let the cousins play (including the dogs). Then that night we were all treated to dinner at Papa's new venture: The Genghis Grill. It was yummy, thanks Papa! Tuesday afternoon we went to All Star Sports hoping to ride go-karts, but had to settle for playing video games instead. It was still fun watching the kiddos win tickets and then pick out their prizes! The cousins had lots of fun playing with each other during the down times and they even got a couple Ranger rides through the neighborhood. The adults played some Wii and visited. Despite the crazy KS wind, we all had a great time! Thanks to Nana, Papa and the Hoopers for a wonderful visit!
The cousins enjoy a story from Papa, and birthday cake. Nana rocks it out!
Fun at the zoo!
