helicopters and the like

while visting family in florida over this glorious memorial day weekend, nic is living the little boy dream of flying!

sorry for the low lighting, we HAD to turn off the fan lights in order to land the helicopter on the fan blade. success.

unfortunately, we have no photos of us actually at the beach in florida, due to sparing our electronic devices from water damage.

happy memorial day weekend from florida!

bunkered in the basement

neosho and i under our basement stairs, surrounded by pillows, and comforted by the radio play-by-play of the storm's activity. bunkered in.

tornado season has commenced here in kansas city. take heed.

Sleepy Puppy

Maybe we shouldn't have soaked his bone in NyQuil? I dunno.

springfield, mo, river at the landing, and may craziness

our weekends in may are jam packed with family, friends, baby shower, wedding, graduations, vacations, etc, etc. it's just craziness, and we love it.

the first weekend in may my brother and sister-in-law joined us as we embarked to springfield, mo to visit my sister and her husband. 

day trip to branson to buy some new shades was in order. don't we all look pretty studly?!? 

the beautifulness of missouri, i miss it (and the company) already.
