Kansas City

This past weekend we took a mini vacation to Kansas City, but it wasn't just the three of us. Grandma and Papa Siemers joined us too. They had never been to KC and we thought it would be fun to have them get away with us.
We left on Friday and made a couple stops at some wineries. We enjoyed some great wines and then checked into our hotel.Our hotel had an outdoor pool so we hit that as soon as we settled in.

Papa and Tate in the pool.

That evening we decided to go down to the Plaza to look around and have dinner. Tate loved the fountains and didn't want to sit for very long...he was on the mooove after riding in the car for several hours.
On Saturday, we went to Legends for shopping. We got lots of great deals and made many purchases. This awesome outdoors shopping had more fountains for Tate to splash in and an awesome aquarium in one of the stores.

Grandma let Taterbean get all wet! He LOVED it!

On Sunday, we went to St. Joe to visit Aunt Maagie and the gang. We had lunch and played. Then it was back in the car and we headed to Diagonal to Grandpa Dick and Grandma Janis' house. Tate 'drove' the tractors and even went for a ride with Daddy on the 4wheeler. He loved it!

Tate and Cousin Ashlei

We ended our Sunday in Creston at Grandma and Papa Taylors. We had a HUGE dinner. Mike even gave my parents a tour of Creston and we had a nice visit. This was the first time seeing both of the grandparents at the same time since Tate could say "grandma and papa". We thought maybe he'd be confused, but he did well. He's a lucky little boy to have such awesome grandparents who love him to pieces!
Now it's Monday and we are back home in Nevada. It was a great weekend and we are all glad to be sleeping in our own beds!
I'm just so thankful that we had a safe trip!
