Summer Fun!

While Mac was in Kansas I enrolled Marcus in a camp at the Challenger Space Center.  It was Astronaut Survivor camp

He learned a lot, had fun and made friends!

Good job Marcus!!

...and a little getaway for mom and dad! Max stayed with Marcus while Mitch and I got away for a fun weekend to Vegas!

We had free nights at the Luxor, so we enjoyed some time by the pool.  Let me just tell you, you could spend the whole time just people watching!


This yummy food came from Tacos and Tequila!


This was a fun slot machine, but no big winnings for us!

What month is it???

Oh my, I am so behind!  I can hardly keep track of what month we are in let alone what day it is!  Summer was all about family, lots of bags and airports and trips to and from Kansas and Arizona. Mackenzie spent some time with her grandparents and cousins and hopefully made some memories along the way....this picture belongs on a Kansas postcard!  My mom really has a knack for photography! 

I flew with Mac and delivered her to mom and dads in mid June.  I also stopped to see my grandma in her new home in Osage...then I had to quickly fly back to the desert!  Mac got to help Papa and Gma Katy around the house and even rode the lawnmower

What a nice picture!

They went to the Topeka Zoo with Brooke and Alex...

Mac looks tall in this photo...

She helped Grandma in the kitchen....

and Papa with the picnic table (I was sure this would be painted Kstate purple!)


I have so many more pictures and will catch up!  Here is Mac enjoying a nice fire to roast marshmallows...
