2021

 

Happy Birthday to me. Don't look a day over 39.

Scott and Karen stopped for a visit. Truman was quite the storyteller.

When I picked the kids up from school I saw a kitten in the parking lot that almost got ran over several times. So, I went and picked him up so he wouldn't get hit. When the kids came out of school they saw me holding him. We asked around to a few neighbors, but no one claimed him. He came home with us and we named him Willy. Willy Wildcat.

Celebrating Amelia's birthday with the girl cousins.

Great Aunt Anne Passed away. We went to Arkansas City for her memorial service. It was true to her and ended with the playing of Frank Sinatra's "My Way." 

Truman's birthday.

Birthday celebration with the boy cousins bowling and Freddy's.

Amelia went with Saige and Sloan and some of their friends to celebrate their birthday.

Everyone had to pee on the way home.

We made a Saturday trip to Hutchinson, went to the zoo, park and met up with Alana and family.

Amelia gets braces tomorrow and these are the "before" pics.

Amelia and I made a trip to NE Kansas for the BKRT pre-trip of Brown, Doniphan and Nemaha counties. As we were driving north of Manhattan, they were burning. It was so cool to see at night.

Big Kansas Road Trip 2021 to Brown, Doniphan and Nemaha counites. We camped at Sycamore Springs north east of Sabetha.

Mom, Dad and Travis went to San Francisco to clean out Aunt Anne's apartment.

For family vacation this year we went to Ohio via St. Louis and Muncie.

In Muncie, we visited the house where Bob Ross filmed the Joy of Painting. 

We also visited the home of the Ball family, who Ball State University and Ball canning jars are named for.

The kids have been asking to go to a beach. We took them to a beach. On Lake Erie at Huron, OH. 

The best ice cream place ever is the Pied Piper in Huron, OH.

We drove to Cleveland to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

I think the part of the museum Truman and I most enjoyed was the garage band where you can plan different instruments.

We made it to Scott and Karen's at Arcanum, OH and got to meet new cousins.

We went to the National Museum of the Air Force in Dayton. Travis and Truman enjoyed the military planes and I liked the presidential planes section best.

We made a trip to Kansas City, stayed with Hollie and Michael. 

And went to a Chiefs vs Chargers game. 

We had the grand opening of the M.T. Liggett Visitors Center. Complete with heart cookies. 

Truman was my wedding date to Caitlin and Shane's wedding. He was a good helper to move chairs.

We got a shed!

Amelia and Adrianna headed to their first Jr high dance.

The Neuhold girls came over to play.
