Homecoming 2016

I was able to get a quick shot before Cass went off to work.

Dylan putting Nicole's corsage on. Pretty easy!!!

Dylan's was a different story. It took a zip tie, two safety pins and a bobby pin. Hope it lasts through dinner!

Dylan and Nicole

Now they are headed to Hereford House and then the dance! 

Porchfest KC

Michael and I enjoyed a nice afternoon at the Porchfest KC.  There were 40 different porches with all kinds of bands. They changed bands every few hours with a total of 140 bands.  The weather was perfect and it was very relaxing. Here are some of the bands on porches:

We suck at selfies!!

Then we had lunch at the KC BBQ Truck.

Another nice Fall day!!

Pumpkin Valley at Rising Star Ranch

It was a gorgeous day at Rising Star Ranch/Pumpkin Valley today.

They had beautiful horses running through the pasture.

He posed for a picture.

Kylie loved riding the pony.

Cass and Kylie tried to see saw but it didn't quite work.

Spider!!!

They even had a little petting zoo with llamas.

Hay maze

Hay ride was a little bumpy!

A very enjoyable Fall day

Holy-Field Winery

We had a nice little picnic at Davenport Winery.

Bluejacket Crossing Winery

We had so much fun doing a little Kansas winery road trip!!

National Cheeseburger Day

We tried a new recipe tonight. Michael made beer can bacon cheeseburgers and they were yummy! We stuffed them with grilled onions, mushrooms and cheese and Michael made sauce to put on top of them.

Happy National Cheeseburger Day!!

Atchison, St. Joe, Weston and a Beautiful Wedding

I had so much fun spending the day with my boys before Cass joined us for the Nichols wedding.

We made a stop in Atchison to visit the Amelia Earhart birthplace.

Then we stopped in St. Joe to see the "McDonald's of the Future".

Inside of McDonald's...it really was not much different than now.

Michael and I dropped Dylan off at the St. George Hotel so he could rest before the wedding. Then we took a distillery tour at Holladay Distillery home of McCormick Distilling Company. It is the oldest distillery west of the Mississippi River. It was a great tour.

Limestone spring water used to make bourbon

It is located outside of Weston and it was so pretty.

Dylan riding in the limo with the girls to the Weston Red Barn Farm.

The limo came back to pick us up also.

Our first limo ride!

I have never seen such a handsome ring bearer ever!

Love his Ring Security shirt!

Dylan with the flower girls

The wedding was outside and the reception was in the barn. It was so beautiful.

What a fun and wonderful day!!
