Ok, the photo album for this one is SO big, but I couldn’t leave any of them out….it was SO, SO fun! Here are some of our favorites:
~Bunk Buddies….Lydia and Ella! These two played AMAZINGLY well together…dress up, tea party, everything! Aunt Celeste finished their sun room as a play room and it’s THE BEST!
~Ice Skating & Hot Chocolate….can you say Winter Olympics? Maybe Sessions/Edgington style….which means going really slow, holding onto the side and falling a lot! p.s. I was the official photographer….no ice skates for me…that would be REALLY bad!
~Exploring Fort Riley’s Train, play grounds, cemetary, Cannon Hill & Tanks & Army Trucks---notice the sign that we saw AFTER that said “please don’t climb on tanks”. Ha ha! (notice the picture of Ella reading….in the middle of the trail up Cannon Hill! Now that’s my kind of girl…one who will sit down and read ANYWHERE!)
~Playing at Pillsbury Falls…so fun and the kids didn’t even mind that it was 50 degrees outside and they played in the water anyway! It’s a natural ford in the creek and we also did Donuts….much to Celeste’s and my dismay! Chuck even brought the car close to the edge of the falls….I was NOT freaking out, by the way!
~Picnic in the park with jalepeno venison summer sausage…mmmmm!
~Donuts at Varsity Donut….um yeah…they have a maple bar with bacon crumbles on it….DIVINE! Who knew? They also had a square donut called The Flat Tire with oreo crumbles on it…the kids LOVED it! Donuts were followed with Bowling and we passed by the art museum at the university and they have a CHIHULY! http://www.chihuly.com I LOVE his art….check out his website and look at his unique, amazing art!
~Sleeping in, yummy food (nanaimo bars, apple cider, gingerbread pancakes---mmmm!), watching movies, reading….just a WONDERFUL time! Colette even barred the door so we couldn’t leave..can’t wait to see them again. They are truly some of our favorite people….like I said on FB, I couldn’t have picked a better wife for my brother and I would pick her not only for a sister in law but also as a friend. Love them! Thanks for a great week!!!
