The Rest of the Trip

Father took us to the John Deere store on Friday morning. Drew was running around from tractor to tractor looking at all of them! He loved to sit on them and push the buttons and levers. The store had many John Deere toys to choose from and so Drew chose a toy and Father bought him a hat. The nice man who worked there also gave him a little lunch box like the one that Austin has. He had a great time and asks very often when we are going back to the John Deere place!


I also wanted to take a picture of the boys with Mayer and Father since I havent done that the last few visits. Needless to say they werent very cooperative so you just have to deal with what you get!

We left on Friday afternoon and on the way out we saw a lot of dairy cows (my favorite). They were just eating grass by the fence. By the time I got my camera out and took pictures (it is really slow) this is all that I got...


Yes, it is a baby cow licking his mommy's butt. Oh, well! Like I said, you just take what you can get!

We went to the park again on Saturday and it was a nice day. There were some people playing cricket which was neat and Drew got to play with his spark balls. I took these last two pictures of Austin while he was in the tunnel.



We flew out Sunday afternoon and had a good flight until a witchy lady and her even more witchy daughter had issues with Drew and kept hitting him in the head with their chairs. They claimed that he was kicking their seats (he wasnt even sitting behind them) and they were very ugly about it. So, I got in a fight with the ugly Mom. I dont think that they have ever flown anywhere before and expect a plane flight to be quiet and with out any disturbances. My kids are good on airplanes and I yelled at her and told her that! The flight attendant intervened and she stopped. She was ugly from behind and very ugly from the front. Go back to the hole you came from! Get off of my DFW-SLC flight! We are glad to be home though and cant wait to come visit Gigi soon!

Geez that sounds like it totally sucked with that lady on the flight! I'm sorry! The rest of your trip seemed pretty smooth though, I'm glad you guys had fun! Does Austin like going to the park? Does he actually crawl in the tunnels? We've tried to do the playground thing but King usually just watches the other kids. Recently he's seemed to enjoy it more. I can't wait till he can play on it by himself!

Shannon, I wasn't sure you were ever coming back!! It sounds like you had a great vacation though. I have your Usborne books waiting here for you. Now that I know you are home, we will bring them by.

Man, what a blast. You did so many fun things and I'm sure had a lot of fun with family - your boys will remember that trip, no problem!
