A Weekend in Kansas City
After the debacle with the inside-out shirt, our visit with Grandpa John and Grandma Judy has gone much more smoothly. I think it's even fair to say that we've been having fun.
Went out to breakfast.
Waited for a table.
Tried the new menu items.
And hung out with Great-Grandma Alma.
We went to the dump to do recycling.
Threw bottles.
And had to recover by taking a nap.
We ate breakfast on the patio.
And hung out with Grandma Judy.
After breakfast, we went to Powell Gardens and got lost in a maze of hay bales.
Met a scarecrow.
And totally dissed it.
We played in fountains.
Observed bananas in the act of growing.
Met a terrifying clown.
Walked right by Whistler's Mummy without saying hi.
Reflected on the subtle majesty of nature.
Stole strawberries from the horticultural exhibit and ate them in spite of the rules.
Rode a horse.
Primed the pump.
Watered the plants.
Got Gothic with Grandpa John.
Climbed into the chicken coop.
And climbed back out again.
We took a ride on the barrel train.
Down a big hill and back again.
Back home again, we grilled.
Ate lemon meringue pie.
Tried on Grandpa John's glasses.
And wracked our brains trying to figure out what he was thinking when he dressed Alden inside out on Friday morning.
To cap it all off, we had a bath.
And now we are in bed, where anyone should be at 12:30 on a Sunday night. Except for Robbi, who in all likelihood is just getting started with her day.
