Another Trip to Kansas?

I know, I know. We go to Kansas alot. This trip added new excitement. Emmilyne is potty training. She has been on it for about 3 weeks and is doing very well. Her potty was added to teh trunk so we could stop in the middle of no-where if need be.... well we did. It is called Oklahoma.
Well....Granny and Paw Paw love seeing the kids. But this trip was something even more special. We got to visit Uncle Micah and meet Aunt Patti.

Meet Aunt Patti....wow... they have been married a year but we had not met her yet. In May of 2007 we could not afford to go to Detroit to the reception and it is too far to drive from Dallas to Detroit so we had to wait. They were heading to Kansas to see the folks and we got to go too! Emmilyne starting talking about Patti as soon as we got in the car. She hit if off with Aunt Patti.
Even helped her blow out her birthday candles... Emmilyne was so excited...she kept saying her cake... we had to explain that her birthday is next month... September.
I was very happy to see my brother. I don't get to see him near enough. Tears came to my eyes when he held my kids and Emmilyne gave him a kiss. She has always said the two of them in her prayers at night... now she know who they are.


Emmilyne loves to swim and got to swim in mom's pool too.... It was a little cold...they were having a cool front so it was only about 75 degrees each day. Emmilyne does not care about the water tempature, just as long as she gets to "go swimming" and "jump". She and Micah also blew bubbles in the backyard. Emmilyne now "LOVES" her Uncle Micah... they did bubbles for about a hour!
We had a great time as you can see by the many photos... we did not leave until later on Sunday and had a chance to go feed the ducks at the local park. One thing that Mom always does with Emmilyne and Emmilyne loves it. We all went this time. It was very nice.

One rule I think we learned.... never leave Kansas to come home at 7:30 in the evening. lol
