Staycation- The Start

Travis just finished finals on Thursday. And he passed all his classes (with As and Bs)! I'm so proud of him. He works SO hard. We like to relax and spend time together between trimesters to make up for the lack of time we had together during the trimester. Usually we're going somewhere for the break. I think this is our first break we're spending in Kansas. We decided we're going to have a "staycation" (a vacation while staying at or close to home). We don't have the money to travel or do anything amazing, but we're still planning on having a great break! We're wanting to do something close to home everyday (a picnic at the park, the zoo, Deanna Rose-a local farm, some church sites, downtown KC, etc.). We're excited to do things around town that we haven't had a chance to do yet. 

To kick off our staycation, we went to our favorite restaurant (Cheddars) on THURSDAY night. The onion rings at Cheddars are to DIE FOR!
It's safe to say that Cheddars is a favorite of Hailey's too. 

 FRIDAY morning we hit up the zoo. Can I just say real quick that having a pass to the zoo is the best thing ever?! Hailey LOVES going and Travis and I always have a great time too. I think Hailey and I have been 5 times in the last couple months.

We watched the Sea Lion Show this last time. Hailey really got into it! She was pointing and saying her new word, "Wow!". It was too cute!



Hailey ALWAYS loves the elephants.

She got a new hat to wear this summer. She did really good and kept both her hat and sunglasses on for most of the time. Gosh dang, I can't get over the cuteness.


We've already had a great staycation so far. And we still have two weeks left! Let me know if you have any more ideas of places we need to visit or things we need to do.  And stay tuned for more updates of our staycation.
