Good Trip

Last Saturday it was really cold for Chase's game, but we persevered. We then came home and packed the car for Lenexa, KS. The trip down went really well. Chase watched his movies and Anthony ate, slept and we played. We checked into our hotel around 4:30pm and then headed over to Miranda and Rob's. We hung out there for awhile and then Rob suggested we check out Powerplay.

It was a really fun place. They had a buffet for $3.99 and then you can buy a card to play the games and rides. It is like Chuck E. Cheese but a lot cooler. They had a great kids area, that Chase just loved with a train to ride on. They had Tilt-a-whirl and swings. Indoor go-karts, laser tag, glow in the dark mini-golf and tons of video games. Miranda, Anthony and I just hung out and talked, while the boys went off and had fun.

Sunday we met for breakfast and then headed to Garden City. We stopped at Wal-Mart and Chase picked out some fake flowers for the vases on Mom's and Grandma's headstones. He picked out some really pretty white and purple flowers. We cleaned off the stones and decided that next year we are going to plant rose bush between the two headstones. We then went into town to see if Eric's dad was home, but he wasn't, so we headed back to Iowa.

For Mother's Day the boys surprised me with a beautiful Mom necklace with a ruby and diamonds. Eric says the boys will have to work it off! We got back to Des Moines aroun 4pm and went to Joe's Crab Shack for dinner. I had crab legs and they were delicious. I had a very nice Mother's Day.
