Week in Kansas

We spent a great Labor Day week in Kansas. I  didn't manage to get a lot of pictures but nonetheless we had a great time with friends and family. It started with a great bbq at the Fogt's house in KC. My KS girls and I have always known how to throw parties. Oh, how times have changed as this bbq's wild stories came from a yard full of kiddos and one awesome bouncy house! And I took no pictures. (p.s. Kels, I know you have a fulltime job and two young kids but whenever you find a free moment, which I get may be in 5 years please pass along pictures!). Oh and I also managed no pictures of our fun park outing with our Lawrence friends.
Someone wasn't real happy about nine hours in her car seat...
Amelia maybe slept for five minutes total if you add up her sleep time there and back...
The girls LOVED the pool at GranAnn's new place. We quickly learned that take-out dinner at the pool was the perfect end of summer dinner and was such a brilliant idea that we did it with pizza, Italian and Mexican.

We took the girls to their first KU football game. Oh KU football sometimes you win which is special and the rest of the season we just sit around waiting for basketball to start. Evan, Norah, Amelia and Elise proudly showing off their KU tattoos.
So that whole thing about how we used to throw good parties... Yes this is our kids looking into the house next to where we were tailgating and mesmerized by their game of flip cup.....
Norah, Elise and Evan - Stop corrupting our girls with your tailgating ways! I blame Carson if my 3 1/2 and 18-month old now know what flip cup is.
cute girls
Amelia loved her Jayhawk face tattoo so much that she demanded to keep it on the whole car ride back to Chicago Sunday AND wear it to preschool on Monday. She was so proud of herself when we walked in and her teacher said, "Amelia did you go to a football game this weekend?" 
Juliet got all dressed-up in her Kansas blue to go to the game too. Thanks to Juliet we didn't even make it to half time before we had to leave...
