Back from VACATION!

Heddo everybuddy. Dis is Kinnick and I am going to dell all of you about our bacation to visit my Gwandma Jayne and Papa Doug wast week. We weft home on Saturday, August 5th. Mommy and Daddy wanted to leave first ding in da morning, but we did not leave until eleven thirdy dat morning. Mommy started out dwiving and she got us all da way to da north side of Kansas City. We got out of da car for a wittle bit at somefing called a west stop. We did not stay too wong, but it was nice to get out and wun around a wittle bit. Daddy dwove us through Kansas City and all da way to a town called Emporia. When we got to dis place we stopped again to get out of da car. Mommy decided dat she wanted to dwive again so Daddy said she could. We got to Wichita Kansas at eight thirdy at night. Mommy and Daddy said dat we were weally good in da car. Dey said dat we dwove through 3 states, Iowa, Missourri, and Kansas. Dat must be a long way because it took us a long time to get there. Gwandma Jayne, Papa Doug, Collin, and Chelsea were all waiting to see us when we got there. Daddy carried in all of our bags and stuff and den Gwandma ordered some pizza for us to eat. It was yuumy.

We got to do wots of fun dings when we were visiting. We did some shopping, mostly for Maddie's back to school stuff. Gwandma Jayne has a swimming pool in da residential area where she lives so we got to go swimming a lot. Carder was not sure what he thought of da water at first, but he finally learned to wike it and even jumped into da pool wiff his lifejacket on. Mommy and Daddy twied putting one of dose on me but I did not wike it at all. I wuv da water, but not in a lifejacket! Da weather was between 105 degrees and 110 degrees every single day we were there! It was WEALLY hot! Da pool felt good!

On Tuesday Gwandma Jayne took us to da Kansas Coliseum to see da Wiggles Live. Maddie did not think dat she was going to wike it, but she did. We all had alot of fun. We got to see Waggs da dog, Dorothy da dinosaur, and all of da Wiggles. Dey sang songs dat we could sing along wiff and it was fun. I am weally glad we got to do dat.

Gwandma Jayne's air conditioner quit working when we were there and it took almost 2 days to get it fixed. Talk about hot. We moved all of our stuff to da basement so dat we could try and stay cool. It was wonderful when Papa Doug got it fixed for us!

Gwandma and Papa have 2 dogs in da house. Huck and Holly. Maddie weally wiked dem alot. Carder was not so sure about dem. Dey always came into da kitchen when I was eating and licked up all of da crumbs I spilled on da floor. I am a pretty messy eater so dey liked it when I was eating. Gwandma cooked weally good food for us when we were at her house.

On Sunday, August 13th, we got ready to come home. It was our plan to leave by nine thirdy, but of course we were running late and did not leave until one thirdy. Daddy dwove us all da way back to Iowa because when we got to Kansas City we ran into some yucky storms. It was really windy and we saw a semi truck dat got blown off of da interstate. Da rain was really heavy too and dat made it hard to see da road. All of us kids got weally cwabby in da car. Mommy and Daddy could not wait to get home. It was almost ten o'cwock when we pulled into da dwiveway.

We were all tired and went to bed when we got home. It was a fun twip and we had a good time visiting Gwandma Jayne and Papa Doug. Mommy will try and get some picdures posted tomorrow sometime dat we took on our twip.

Wuv, Kinnick and family
