Gold Over America Gymnastics

Last night, we went to the Gold Over America tour

featuring Simone Biles and many other Olympic gymnasts.

We had great seats that I won on Mix 93.3.

It was so much fun to watch Simone and Jordan

and Jade too!

It was like Simone could fly!
Jade was up there too!

The guys put on a great show too.  My favorite

was Frederick Richard.

We had a great time seeing so many Olympic gymnasts perform together!

Moon Festival 2024

We had a great time at the

Mid Autumn Moon Festival!

We played word games

and lawn games!

The kids decorated lanterns

and we played pickleball!

The weather was fantastic for October.

There were calligraphy lessons

and so much yummy food!

One of our favorite parts was when 

the KU Lion Dance team performed.

The night ended with our 

lantern parade through the park.

We can’t wait to do it all again next year!

Fun Farm

Earlier this week Harper and I went to Fun Farm!

Harper measured 4’10”

The weather was perfect

and we had the place practically to ourselves!

Harper was able to enjoy all the activities

with no waiting in lines!

She played for hours

She loved the giant slide

and the corn pit

and tried out her lassoing skills.

She loved the playhouses too!

We took our annual picture in the big red chair

and ate pumpkin donuts!

We had the best time at Fun Farm!

Labor Day 2024

We spent Labor Day weekend visiting 

our friends in Oviedo, Florida.

We saw so much wildlife

including alligators

and cool birds!

We fed the turtles and giant fish.

This alligator came right up to us.

It was fun seeing them up close.

Harper played lots of shuffleboard

and we went to our first ever Buc-ees!

We checked out the pier at Daytona Beach

and had lunch with an ocean view!

Harper even got to “paint” her dessert.

We can’t wait to go back again!

Adoption Anniversary 2024

On Tuesday, we celebrated the 

12th anniversary of Harper’s adoption.

We celebrated with our usual traditions-

a new charm for her bracelet

and we ate lots of yummy Chinese food

then we went to adopt a bear at Build-A-Bear.

Harper posed for a picture at the shower

and had fun finding just the 

right outfit for her new bear.

She named her bear Chocolate Cookie aka “CC”.

The weather was perfect for a stop at Lilo’s.

We are so blessed to have you in our family Harper!
