Kansas Landmarks (at least to us ;))

We went up to KC for a few reasons...more to come on those later.  While there and before the weather  turned c-r-a-z-y, we took advantage of some of our fave outdoor places!

First up, Deanna Rose with the Stilley girls!

 They both just adored the animals.

 I ended up feeding the goat 98% of that bottle but Laney did give it a try.  Oh...and while walking to return the empty bottle, I turned around for.a.second. and the girl had that nasty goat tainted bottle in her mouth!!!!!!  please note cooper hiking up his shorts, he fell in the rocks, skinned up his knees and basically was the end of the world for about 20 minutes.

 I am sure someday I will look back and cringe about her hair, but right here and now...I adore it.

 This was a good as it got for a group pic.  And next time we see the Stilley girls they will have expanded by one more sweet baby girl!

 Cooper had 4 quarters to spend.  He chose to donate 2...tried to explain the idea of donation but pretty sure he just liked putting the coins in the tiny barn ;).  

He used another quarter to feed the big goats and decided to keep 1 to buy something at the Royals game that night ;).

Later that night, Grandpa treated us and Aunt Alli to a Royals game!

 We even had some VIP seats!

 He liked the game, he loved the food/drinks.  

 Beautiful night, great seats.  I couldn't get over the fact that I am older than 95% of the team.  When did this happen?  Adam and I just recently had this discussion...the fact that we both still consider ourselves 25 but we are sure no one else views us that way ;(.  

He spent most of the game on the lookout for the 

cotton candy guy.

Taking it all in.

Finally, we hit up the Overland Park Arboretum.  It was sunny and hot and I forgot sunscreen.

 If you live in OP, you should go visit!  They are working on a great little train park.  Laney looks like a 2 year old ;(.

 Can you believe it was snowing 48 hours later?

Mom of the Year award right here...see her sunburned shoulders??  They were totally fine the next day but I won't be forgetting the sunscreen anytime soon ;).
