The Scoop from the Creemery: June 2008

Creemer Cousins at the Urban Swimming Hole

Jordan Valley Park is an urban swimming hole in downtown Springfield. The "river" runs through the park and kids are allowed/encouraged to play in the river and the fountain. This was another fun outing with O and S's favorite people in the world, their cousins!

Silver Dollar City Excursion

We met the CA Nicholson's at SDC for a very fun day!

Some things never change! Granpa's Mansion at Silver Dollar City is one such place! Other rides were new and modern. It was all a blast! Some of the blasts included water so we got to wander the park with our soggy bottoms... there were so many fun things to do we forgot to do all the old fashioned crafts...

Sadie poses with a Russian Ice Dancer who skated on stilt skates after she hung from the ceiling on a ribbon! Unbelievable! Cirque de la Ice!

Good Times at Hillbilly Beach, Walnut Grove, MO

Good ol' fashioned hillbilly fun- a tarp, a hose, an old canoe- tons of fun on a hot summer day with tons of cousins to play with! Add in a few critters, popsicles, bonfire, weenie roast, what more do you need!?

Happy 10th Anniversary!

Out to dinner at a lovely new restaurant, to celebrate ten years! They treated us to a lovely cake and flourless torte which fell over right before the picture!

from the Kansas city Star:

Bella Restaurant and Coffeehouse, a casual European bistro, offer a “slow food” menu. “Slow food” refers to food grown locally, without hurting the environment or animals and having workers who are justly compensated.
The restaurant is at 1403 W. 39th St.

Love the new underwater camera!

After dropping my good camera several times and getting it wet ... a few times, Traf got me a totally waterproof and shockproof camera. It is purse sized and best of all can take underwater pictures and movies! We have had so much fun experimenting with pictures! Especially Uncle Lendsey!
