Back to reality

We're home. What a great get away. Our hotel was amazing, to say the least. We recommend it to any couple looking for romance - Chateau Avalon.




It feels secluded, yet it's just across from the speedway, the baseball stadium, and the Legends shopping and dining area.

Every room is themed. We stayed in the

Every room has a jacuzzi tub, the PERFECT way to relax.



The hotel offers great services such as an amazing room service, special dessert room service, spa treatments, movies, delicious breakfast delivered to your room, and more. We had so much going on, we really didn't have time to enjoy these services as much as we would have liked so we're planning to do that next time we stay there. Yes, we're going back, may not be for a while, but we'll be back.


Chet learned a lot in his meetings, however, it wasn't all work and no play. After dinner Thursday night, we tried our luck at the casino. We both walked in with $100 bills in our pockets, and we walked out with those same $100. Chet hit 4 kings on video poker and won $120! He used that at the roulette table. He hit big at first, but his luck ran out and so did we. Our itch for Vegas is stronger than ever now!


I ran all over KC today while Chet was in meetings. I went to my favorite second-hand store, The Children's Orchard. Cru hit the jackpot there....brand new Nike's for $5.99! Can't beat that! They teased me with racks and racks of fall clothes that weren't for sale until tomorrow....are you kidding me? I still managed to find plenty.


Chet's meetings were at the T-Bones stadium today.
When I went to pick him up it brought back a lot of fun memories from last summer when Ty pitched for them. My brother has had a lot of moments in his baseball career that have made me proud, but that ranks at the top.

Back to reality, and boy were we greeted with it when we got home - a terrible cold and spit up! Good news, things went better than expected last night. The majority of the problems came from Reese and her runny nose. Cru had very little if any fussiness and slept all night until 9am this morning! Reese and Cru (and Mommy and Daddy) are so blessed to have wonderful grandparents. I don't know what we'd do without you!
