Once again I find myself behind in posting to the blog. That normally happens when we have a lot going on. Been busy at work with several Trade Shows in June. But luckily we were able to go to Kalahari up in Sandusky Ohio again. Tresha, Kyra, and I had a really nice time. The highlight of the trip for us all was the new petting zoo they have. Kyra could have spent all day there! She loved feeding the animals, her favorites by far where the baby goats. We got smart before going to the petting zoo the second day and I stopped at Walmart and bought a large bag of organic baby carrots and Tresha smuggled them in so Kyra could use those to feed the animals. Below are a few pictures from the trip but be sure to check out all the pictures on Flickr.
While we were in Kalahari, Trei was also up near us with God Squad. He stayed at Lakeside and they visited Cedar Point and Put in Bay. He really had a nice time and made some new friends. First thing he asked me was what is our phone plan so he can call some of them. LOL I remember doing the same thing. I always meet people from all over the country on our youth trips we I was his age.
After our newly found favorite sport to watch, Roller Derby, (Go Cincinnati Roller Girls!) Tresha and I decided to take a little afternoon date and go roller skating since Trei was still up north and Kyra was at daycare. We both did it when we were younger. We both had forgotten how tough it is! It really wore us out. So much more respect for those Derby girls after just a couple hours of skating. Made me realize just how old I am! And even Tresha was complaining of feeling old. Our legs, thighs, feet, and backs were killing us but the time we were done. But we really had a good time and look forward to going back. We just need to get in a little more conditioning before we attempt to skate in front of people we know. What I find the funniest after watching Tresha skate, is that at our first roller derby bout, SK8 Crime told Tresha to come and try out if she was interested, she has a long way to go before she would be able to skate in a roller derby.
Friday night we went to the Clarkes to celebrate an early July 4th. Had a lot of fun just hanging out and watching everyone and getting caught up with them. The kids had a lot of fun Trei got the opportunity to set off his first bottle rockets and roman candles. He and Tresha both enjoyed their pyro tendencies. I was really glad I could get Kyra to sleep so they could enjoy themselves as much as they did.
Really glad we did the 4th celebrating last night. Today has turned into a nasty wet day. But we have Tresha's family here today and the high point of the evening so far is Wipe Out. We love that show!
Happy 4th everyone!
