Once a Year Golf (at most)
Saturday, September 11, 2021
A Big Saturday!
First, there was a trip to Air City 360 with AJ, David, and Lexi. Then Matt, Matteo, and Jamie attended the Rocky Mountain Pig Jig at the Mining Museum. Maybe a BBQ team next year, eh TimberCreek!? Pig Jigs raise money to fight Nephrotic Syndrome, a severe and aggressive type of chronic kidney disease that equally affects children and adults.
We won a Yeti cooler at the Pig Jig! |

Sundance and White Chocolate Grill
Nana and Papa did a little trip to Park Meadows Mall to visit Sundance to find Lynn some stuff for the upcoming trip to California. They did that and then some! As it happened, Tracy was up in the Denver area with one of the foster twins for a doctor's appointment so they met up at White Chocolate Grill for lunch! A few miscellaneous things below, too.

We are in Kansas some more
One of our favorite pit stops: I-70 Diner in Flagler, CO. |
Greating us at the Four Points Marriott in Manhattan, KS. |
Always fun at Umi Steakhouse and Sushi. |
He got 5 or 6 in a row, machine-gun style. |
They learned about pool, and loved it. |
Always fun at Little Apple Lanes |
AJ and David were quite the team. |
Unique technique. (It didn't work any better.) |
KC's Renaissance Festival
The travelers to Kansas to visit Sam spent Sunday at the Kansas City Renaissance Festival in Bonner Springs. And Aunt Vickie joined us! We pretty much wore everyone out.
Fina's been painting pieces like this for K Dopita all summer. |
Jousting! |
Swords! We brought back a sword for everyone! |
The place was called AJ's NY Pizzeria. |
A few of Sam's buddies joined us at the Faire, too. |

Flint Hills Discovery Center
Model railroad! |
Really cool "4-D" theater. |
We love museums that have scavenger hunts! |
The old train station across the field from the Discovery Center. |
The rocket launcher was a big hit! |
AJ waits on the 3rd floor to recover the rocket. |
That's the train station on the other side. |
