Kansas City Zoo

The weather was cool today, 

so we went to the Kansas City Zoo.

Harper loved the penguins

and the sea lion show.

We played on the playground

and found macaroni and cheese for lunch!

In the Australia section, the kangaroos were

hopping around with us.  Harper kept her

distance from them while she posed.

We found lots of slides

and looked at some animals too!

We spent quite a bit of time petting the stingrays

and rode the sky safari over Africa!

The view was great!  

We loved seeing the giraffes and zebras up close!

Worlds of Fun

Today we went to Worlds of Fun.

Harper was finally tall enough to drive the taxi!

We loved Planet Snoopy.

We rode the roller coaster

and the rocket.

Harper drove a truck

and we rode in a school bus that went very high!

We talked to Charlie Brown and Snoopy

and met Lucy too!

We checked out the new petting zoo

and ate macaroni and cheese with French fries pizza!

Harper rode the Viking Voyager for the first time.

She looks scared in the picture, but she loved the ride

especially when we got soaked at the end!

We had a blast at Worlds of Fun!

Americana Pictures

At the beginning of July, Harper posed for some Americana photos.  Here are some of my favorites.

Aunt Christy & Lex

Aunt Christy and Lexi were here at the beginning of June.

We laughed a lot!

One day we went to The Money Museum.

We learned about the history of US curency.

There were tons of activities.

Harper stood by 10 million dollars

and figured out how many pennies tall she was.

Christy tried to lift a bar of gold and eventually succeeded!

Harper and Lex got a bag of shredded money

and we laughed more.

We ate lunch on the Plaza at Shake Shack.  What a fun day!

Tee Ball

Harper played tee ball again this summer.

She improved quite a bit since last year.

Her favorite part is telling the other team “Good game!”
