Missouri – Day 3

Day 3 of our vacation was spent in the water again! being Lazy in the lazy river…

being cute…

 

smiling!

we also went to the main office area for the daily craft for the kids – which sounded cool  - they got to design their own fishing lures..

of course the big kid got involved too!

So precise!

walking ‘home’

got in some shopping too – we headed to the outlet mall – and of course I had to hit up the UnderArmour store – only Owen’s most favorite store in the world!

so sweet!!

borrowing papa’s sweatshirt!

After the kiddos were in bed – the adults put on a movie in the theater room! 

Missouri – Day 1 & 2

Second annual trip to Branson, Missouri with the whole Kole clan! 

Kids did SO good in the car.  owen was pretty serious about getting his sunglasses all clean and ready to go! 

syd with her little snack and brother’s leap pad

showing off his SUPER loose tooth! 

takin a snoozer

super excited for the night at a hotel on the way there..they were hiding in the closet!

after some dancing on the bed to some ‘Happy’ – they go all tucked in

and nothin says traveling with boys like a stop off at the side of the road for a potty break!

traveling is hard work!

AND we MADE IT!!! time for a selfie…or as scott tells me – this is called a ‘us-ie’ because there is more than one person

hot tub time…

riding back from the pool! 

sweet little syd…she laid in bed with scott and i and just held scott’s hand and kept saying “mine, mine”

 

Time to hit the pool again! syd discovered swimmies and a tube keep her floating pretty good and she would jump in over and over and over again! 

Papa and his babies

and rounding out a busy day, syd relaxes while grappy grills us some pork chops!

Tiny Dancer

 

We signed Syd up for a 3 day Princess dance class at Avalon because she’s been talking about dance forever and she LOVES to dance!!! she was ecstatic to say the least!

first day – notice the sandals!  :) 

Day 2…SO happy!

Day 3…her ‘recital’ – parents got to come in and watch their performance!! :)  Aunt Barbara and Uncle Richard were in town so they came to watch her too!!

so precise with her movements – she took it so seriously!

They stood up tall and then did leaps across the room after they showed us some ‘moves’

then they did a little show…I love the couple times when she gets so excited that people are watching her that she forgets what she’s doing…and somehow I stopped recording before the end – but its still super cute!!

I’d say it was well worth it!! definitely will be signing her up for more classes in the future :) 

I think the face says it all!!!
