Vacation and Easter and a funny story





We just got back from Myrtle Beach with Grandma and Papa K and Aunt K-T (as Tanner says). It was really nice, relaxing week. The flights with Tanner went better than could be expected. He loved the sand, the ocean, the outside, and playing golf. I feel so blessed that we were able to take him to experience these things...Thank you Grandma and Papa K. I think vacations are so important. I do not think it is WHERE you go, I just think it is important THAT you go. Having a week or so to bond, make memories, and relax....it only makes that family tie that much stronger. I think this week was no exception to that rule. We did miss Uncle Dustin though.

Easter was very nice. Tanner got to practice his Easter egg hunting on vacation, so bright and early yesterday we were outside hunting eggs. He got distracted after about 7 eggs because the eggs were "balls" like footballs, etc. so then he decided he wanted to play with balls in the garage....ending to his hunt. He enjoyed church in the car in the parking lot as he napped with Daddy....oh well. A very nice brunch at Staley we had, he LOVED playing golf on the putting green. He might be a little obsessed and I swear we had nothing to do with it.

The funniest story though, and I might pee my pants just thinking about it. Grandma K and I were trying to get things out of my car while Tanner was playing in the drivers seat. I took out the keys out of the ignition and set them in my purse so he would not put the car in reverse. My Mom shuts the door and just stops and looks at me...yep, Tanner locked himself IN the car! I was half laughing, half freaking out. After a couple of minutes of pleading (mind you Tanner was laughing and having a blast in there) he unlocked the door all by himself. Thank goodness he half was listened and could get it opened. Life is never dull with a toddler as active as Tanner!

God Bless...
