Family Stay-cation

This summer didn't allow a 'real' family vacation so we enjoyed this last week over in WaKeeney for a fun family staycation.  It was interesting packing bags for 6 people just to travel 30 miles, but well worth it. 
Royce's sister, Gina, and her family were in town from Richmond, Virginia.  We had not seen them since our vacation last September so it was great to get the kids together again and let the grown-ups have some fun, too. 

When we were there in September this little beauty was almost done baking, and now look at her!  Little Katie, or "Kate-Kate" was born in October and she is such a sweetie. 

Libby on the left (2 1/2) and Gabi on the right (almost 5). 
Such bright smiles!   

Isaac taking a break from the pool to go cruising in his tractor. 

We also spent some time at the Purinton farm.  Royce kept the kids in the tent overnight while the rest of us enjoyed the air-conditioning.  It's always fun to go out there and BBQ, swing in the tire swing, and ride 4-wheelers.

Pretty rainbow!  We could see the WHOLE thing.  A beautiful full rainbow. 

The rainbow is hard to see in this picture, but it looked like Chloe was holding the bottom of it.  


Katie & Chris.  What a great picture!

Time for s'mores!


Gabi & Chloe running with some sparklers left over from the 4th of July.

And they all wanted Grandpa to run, too!

Breakfast at the lodge.  Can you tell it's primarily a hunting lodge?!?!?





And there's always room for funny faces!
