Giving Thanks in KC!

We started out our visit to the College Basketball Experience in downtown KC. It was awesome! The boys loved everything there and did just about everything they had to offer. Check out these shoe sizes of some pro basketball players....The biggest food was Shaq's and it is a size 23!!
The were having a mini dispute over who was going to get to be KU....Jackson won.
They had this ESPN sports desk that you can sit at and pretend that you are the sportscaster...Jason's dream come true! There are many options that you can choose to narrarate, so here they are checking them out.
The KU championship game is the one that they picked and look how enthusiastic Jason is! Did his sons even get a chance to speak? Yes, they both did many times and were just as excited as their dad :)
Another day, we went ice skating at this little outdoor rink. It was a beautiful day outside, so it was perfect! Dad and Brooke hanging rinkside....
My dad and I went out there with the boys and we were both sore the next day. Drew did really great for his first time and by the end, he could go a little on his own without holding on to the wall. So, Jackson has found another passion....ice skating! He was soaking wet from falling down in the puddles that were forming on the ice, but he would not quit! We all traded in our skates after an hour and sat on the side and watched him shuffle like an old man across the ice. It was hilarious.
Afterwards, we stopped in a toy shop and Dad buried Brooke in this chair surrounded by doll friends. It reminds me of ET when he's in the closet with all those stuffed animals.
Mom and Brooke hang on the side waving to all of us.
Check out "Miss Flashdance"...my sister joined Jackson for a lap around the rink.
At the end of the day, there's nothing like a shoulder ride on your big brother's shoulders.
I am thankful for our families and for all the times that we have together to make memories. Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
