Minnesota Bound.....

Getting to Minnesota on our departure date of Thursday didn't work out so well because of snow and bad weather both here in Kansas and in Minnesota. We thought May would be safe for travel, but oh well! Anyways, we did make it on friday and had a short visit but we managed to pack a lot in  despite the cool yucky weather. The kids were really excited as we flew in. We could see them jumping around by the terminal as we were landing.... So funny!

 First night after all the girls had their bath! Everyone was all smiles!

And the sunset that night was glorious!

 Of course we went up for Kaylee's dance recital and this is the crew as we were waiting for it to start!

 And the star of the show was Miss Kaylee! She did absolutely awesome and was so excited to get a flower! As soon as she got home she found a vase to put it in!

 Such a sweet girl - loved seeing her perform...

Kassidy and Papa are often snuggling but they are always busy...

 As we were leaving for church down the street, snapped a quick picture of the cuties.

 Does Kolsen like baseball?  NOOOOOO, he LOVES BASEBALL! and this year he gets to try and see if he can pitch.  Fun times for sure. Both our boys had many great memories from baseball and such a great learning experience. Sports teaches so many great life skills.

 Practicing for tryouts next week. Daddy pitching and papa is fielding

while the girls were busy on the playset and playing at the tennis courts! Talk about imaginations -- it is remarkable the things they come up with - they do not need one toy to come up with such clever games!

Like I said - our time was short but we did have lots of fun - we got to watch the Kentucky Derby on Saturday too.... Sure was fun cheering for our favorite horse.
