Swooping Down in KC

SOOOO ... We are living the high life in the beautiful central valley of California for the summer. On our way to paradise we stopped in good old KC for five days. In that short time we got to visit with our family and friends there, Asher got his first haircut, we rode Thomas the Train, and Justin and I helped Karen with her real estate business.

Here are several pix from our visit...

Here is Papa Virgil giving Asher John his very first haircut. Asher was a good sport and Papa gave him a nice "bowl cut." The kids enjoyed eating Nana Hazel's great cooking and hiking through the pasture after the Mama cow and her calf. And we made it through without any ticks on the kids!

We also had the good fortune to coordinate our trip to KC with Thomas the Trains' stop nearby in Baldwin, KS. We took the kids along with Granddad and Grandma Deb and Wyatt to see and ride Thomas for ourselves. The kids had a blast and they got to taste their first sno-cone!







And with Karen's real estate business booming, Justin and I had an opportunity to lend a hand with a new venture she has started. Here they are the first photos of "Karen Calvin's Community Commode." It is a simple concept really. A truly "Open House" for all to use and it is right there in beautiful Mission Hills. This could be great for the neighborhood!



Honestly, we had a great visit!

Love to all! Jodi (&Justin)
