Why Can't I be Better at Blogging??

Seriously, I am such a blog neglecter.
I'll be back tomorrow with a ton of stuff to blog about.
I promise.

Kansas City Aviation Expo ...

While Eli was spending the day with Grandma Sherry last Saturday, Ian and I decided to go to the Air Show at the Charles B. Wheeler Downtown Airport.

It was so hot and we both got sunburns but it was a pretty fun day. We usually go to some type of air show every year, so this wasn't the first and not the most exciting we've been to, but still fun.

The Thunderbirds flew at the end of the day and we got to see some pretty rare planes that we may not have the chance to see again.

My personal favorite was the F18, we got some great pictures and video but you just don't know what it's like unless you see and hear it in person. It almost knocks you off your feet.











It Used to be Sparks, Kansas ...

Ian and I took Eli to the Sparks Flea Market on Saturday. We had a pretty good time and found some really cool stuff.

For those of you who don't know what that is, I found a great blog written by a man named Ray, who runs the show. And it is a show. This will give you an idea of exactly what you will be getting yourself into if you decide to go ... Sparks, KS Flea Market. It's pretty hilarious.

Well, I didn't get any pictures while we were at the flea market because I was too busy looking at stuff, which is really too bad because I couldn't even describe some of the things we saw there.

But since my Granddad lives only 4 miles from Sparks, KS, which is actually called Highland, KS now seeing as how there are only 9 people left in Sparks, we decided to stop in and say hello to Granddad and Barb. We had a great visit and got some really good pictures and an even better video.





At Granddad and Barb's, the donkeys are always the stars of the show ...

Cainen & Ollie ...

After my last post, I was going through some of the pictures I have of Caiden and Eli as they have grown up together as friends. I decided that I had to dedicate a special post just for them. Are they not the two cutest little boys ever?

They call each other Cainen and Ollie and they have so much fun together. I have a feeling that they will be friends for a long time to come.






Deanna Rose Farmstead ...

The gang got together a couple weekends ago and took the kids to the Deanna Rose Children's Farmstead. This was Eli's second time there and I think he had much more fun this time around. He was still pretty young when we took him last year and it was also 100 degrees the day that we went so we didn't stay too long.

This year, he was able to walk around himself and the weather was perfect! It was a busy day but we all had a lot of fun. Caiden and Eli rode the tractors and fed the baby goats and Lily just took it all in. What a great day!
