Because Grandma Said So: Missouri Vacation – Part 1

Mommy and Daddy decided to take me to Missouri this year to see my Great Grandparents. We left on August 6th. We got to go to a little airport (Alligant Air) that flies into Springfield. That was fun except that Mommy and Daddy forgot my earphones for the DVD player so I had to use their ear buds. I didn’t like them as much. I did really good on the flight though. It was hot in Missouri. I guess a heat wave was going through. I didn’t mind so much, but I think Mommy was hot. While we were visiting Great Grandma and Grandpa Schroff, Daddy and I walked over to Starbucks every morning and I went to the country club and went swimming a lot. It was so much fun! I also went over to Uncle Steve and Rachel’s house to go swimming. Then all of us went to the fair on Sunday. I won lots of fair prizes and went on lots of rides. I also saw pigs and cows!

Then on Monday we went to Silver Dollar City. I got to go on lots of water rides. That cooled me off a lot. They even had sprinklers positioned around the park so everyone could cool off. Rachel had to take me on lots of rides because Mommy wasn’t allowed to go and Daddy was too tall to sit with me. He got kicked off several times for not fitting….hee hee! I had lots of fun riding rides with Rachel!! Mommy started feeling the baby kick that day too. She said the baby was telling her that its Jacuzzi was already warm enough and to get in the AC. I really enjoyed seeing my family! Great Grandma and Great Grandpa are coming out for Christmas so that will be exciting to see them again!
