Cousin Karlie and Aunt Barb come for a visit

Friday night my sister-in-law Barb and niece Karlie came for a visit. This was Karlie's first visit to Wichita and she was excited.  (Brother-in-law Scott and other niece Emily had to stay behind at home to take care of farm business.)  They arrived just in time for Brett's game.  After the game we went to eat at Poplar's in Andover.  Saturday morning we got up and headed to the zoo.

Karlie's only request was to see the penguins.  Luckily for us they were active and swimming right next to the glass.  Karlie took this photo.

It was Kinali's first birthday.  He was a cute little thing and very entertaining.

After the zoo, we headed home to eat lunch with Marty and then Barb and I went out to do some shopping while Marty entertained the kids.  When we returned we hung out until it was time to take Brett to a birthday party and then the rest of us went to Stearman's airfield for dinner in Benton.  After that we showed Karlie and Barb the construction of our new house.  We then returned home to relax.  Sunday morning we got up went to church.  Barb and Karlie got to see Brett receive his study bible during the service and we came home to grill lunch and sent Karlie and Barb back to Topeka.  It was a great weekend and hope they come to visit again only next time maybe Scott and Em can tear themselves away from the farm and join them. 

Last but not least...Karlie and her fav aunt...Me!!
