Cheyenne Mountain Zoo

The gang made it out to the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo in Colorado Springs. It was pricey, but let me tell you that it is worth it. How often do you get to pet giraffes?

Meet Saidi

Saidi (pronounced: Say-dee) is a 7 month old, liver and white, female Brittany. She is a very fast little puppy that likes soft chew toys, or Kai's puppy dog slippers. She loves playing with Smilez.




She is naturally curious about all the activities I am involved in and has already been accepted into the family by the children and Jennie. Approval by Smilez is pending but may be denied.

Ethan and Kai are Junior Missileers

Most awesome water sprinkler, ever.

Tinker Air Force Base Salute to Stars and Stripes Airshow

Man, it is nice having a camera again. Kai, Kate and I went to the Airshow @ Tinker Air Force Base. It went great except 97 degree temps.

Kai found his favorite 'blue' airplane. I wonder what he is thinking?



We saw my favorite old bird, the Douglas DC-3.



Next year I'll remember cash for the Kidz Zone. :(

cheers,
Jon

Roman Nose Memorial Day Weekend

We had a great trip to Watonga. We got to go swimming, lots of bike rides, fishing, canoeing, BBQ, the whole works!














On our way into town on Saturday we got to watch some crop dusters fly by. And even watch a plane take off from the big ole Watonga Regional Airpark.



We dropped into town 5 minutes before some sort of parade just happened to start. It was great! The kids got to see shriners, old cars, get a stock of candy and Uncle Sam go penny farthing.

Kate's Babies Get a New Mode of Transporation

But before the babies use it, we have to "test" it.





You may notice Kate got a knock on her knoggin' that matches Daddy's. Little boys and girls shouldn't climb on train tables. She fell through the table and bonker her head on the edge of one of the table boards. It mirrors mine. What can I say? Daddy's little girl I suppose.
