Kansas

We spent the last few days in Kansas with our family and friends. Tyler was asked to perform our pals Jenny and Frank's wedding and of course we were very willing to help out some friends in need. We headed out to Kansas City last wednesday and returned sunday. Maggie got a lot of great one on one time with the Dirks while Tyler and I had fun wedding festivities to attend. Here are a few pics from the week.
Maggie loved playing with her Grams.
She also enjoyed some quality time on Dog's lap.
Aunt Melodee was able to come out and visit too and Maggie just loved being around her aunt.
We stayed at Aunt Susan's house and our cousin Matthew, Maggie's second cousin was a load of fun. Maggie couldn't help but smile anytime Matthew made a funny face.
Matthew took us to one of Overland Park's finest public swimming pools, complete with two great big pools and big slides, diving boards and a baby area with fountains and a whale tongue to slide down. I don't have a picture of the whale but you'll have to trust me on this, Maggie loved it. She was a little nervous at first but after she got used to the water she thought she could swim by herself and hardly wanted us to hold her at all when we hit the pool.
When we got back to the house Maggie took Matthew's old jeep out for a spin.
Maggie also got the chance to meet her Great Uncle Arlan and Great Grandma Opal for the first time!
This is the groom Frank. He and Tyler were roommates for one year in college.
This is the beautiful bride with one of their fun cups at the reception. She was beautiful and so was the wedding. You could really see their personalities come out in every aspect of the wedding, rehearsal and reception. They are such fun people and we were so glad to be a part of their big day.
Here we are with the bride and groom their love was contagious... and we couldn't help ourselves. Thanks for having us out you two, we had a fabulous trip!

i LOVE the pics of Maggie in bathing suits! She is too cute! And I LOVE the name Henry too! We did not name the horse and it is a good name for a horse but I think better for a cute little dirks boy. Maggie and Henry. . .love it!
