Last of April

Well I fell of the blogging wagon once again but the blogging bug bit me today so today I will catch it up from April to August. Here is what we closed April with......

To avoid the mundane task of unpacking once again JR and I decided to take the kiddos to Louisville for the annual Thunder Over Louisville festivities. We got a call from my dad and he decided to make the drive from Missouri and join us! We packed the car with lots of blankets and coats because the clouds had rolled in and the prospect for rain was obvious. Grandpa and JR were kind enough to stand in the cold and rain while I took Grant on some carnival rides and boy was it cold!

Next we headed over to the stadium to watch a minor league game and the air show..........

You would think that Washington had prepared us for the cold and rain but Kentucky kicked our bottoms. We couldn't hold out long enough for the night time firework show. We packed everyone up and headed home so that we could watch it on television from our comfy couch in our PJ's. From what I hear we made the right choice because the Fireworks were so loud that Ryan would have been a little more than scared.


Next, we decided to take Ryan to get his first big boy hair cut. Even though I was holding out to see if he would get any more curls it had to be done. His long locks were turning into a certifiable mullet and while those seem to be popular here in Kentucky we just didn't want to blend in that well.



We wrapped April up with beginning our quest to obtain our Bourbon Trail Passports with our first stop at the Jim Beam Distillery in Bardstown, KY. We took a tour and learned a lot and mommy and daddy sampled all the different types of bourbon and chocolate they had to offer. I have to admit I am not a fan and will forever be a wine-o, but it was a lot of fun.
