Weekend in KC

Last Thursday, we drove up to Kansas City to meet Shauna, Josh, & the kids for the weekend. We went to Schlitterbahn on Friday. It was a little disappointing, but the kids had a blast! You know kids...Major thinks the Mustang pool is to die for! :) We thought it was going to be huge like the one in Texas, but the KC one just opened. It is only on phase 1 of 9. BUT...in a few years that place will be really neat! (we checked out the model of it!)
After the water park, we had dinner at Paul's house (Trey & Shauna's cousin). The kids don't get to see Bryant very often, and I think they all made up for lost time! They played tag, baseball, and we had smores! I think I accidentally ate THREE of them!!! :)
So, the original plan was to go to Schlitterbahn for 2 days...until we found out there wasn't enough to do. So, we had the great idea of going to Worlds of Fun!!!!! (Should have been called World of Heat Stroke!) Holy Cow! I don't think I have ever been that hot! Saturday in Kansas City was one hot mother scooter! We did get to eat lunch in one of the restaurants that was inside & had A/C so that helped a little bit.
The Sharp's
The Henson's

Dad won Maj a basketball.... Missouri.... GO TIGERS!
I absolutely LOVE this pic of Kate & Maj. SOOOOOOOOOOOO stinkin' hot
out, but they were having a blast!
On to the next place........ Royals Game! They played the Athletics. We never actually sat in our seats because they were in the sun. The kids watched a little bit of the game, but enjoyed sitting on the top row & playing behind center field much more! They had tons of stuff for the kids to do. We stayed for a couple of innings, then headed to the Plaza for dinner. All of the shops were already closed, but I will definitely need to go back. Can you believe I have never been to The Plaza to shop?!? We will be going to KC for Thanksgiving Break...MIZZOU plays Kansas @ the Chief's stadium! Maybe I can get my shop on then!
Our busy, but fun weekend came to an end on Sunday. How convenient for Trey that across from our hotel there was a Cabela's!!!!!!!!! We made a little pit stop there then headed to Tuttle... and Trey didn't even gripe too much when I needed potty breaks!

Look at this kid............ this is how he came home! New orange hunting hat and hunting boots from Cabela's , and his new MIZZOU basketball. Love him! Hope everyone's weekend was as eventful as ours!
