At the end of February Ketron took his first trip with Meme and Bi. They flew down to Houston to visit Uncle Brent, Queenie, and Liam. Ketron had a wonderful time. I think Mom even had to pay him off to stop what he was doing and talk to us on the phone. They took him form us on Sunday afternoon and drove down to Joplin were Mom had got a hotel room. They spent all evening swimming in the pool. Dad said he jumped in at least a hundred times. After a stop at McDonald's early the next morning they were off to the airport. Ketron absolutely loved the airport and the plane. He hasn't stopped talking about it yet. On the return trip things got a little fouled up because of mechanical issues and they ended up catching a flight into Springfield. It was the cuttest thing Dad had figured out to put Ketron on top of the bag straddling the handle and Dad rolled him out of the airport riding the bag.

Enjoying his free beverage.

Riding the train in the Dallas airport.

Play date with Will the boy down the street. Dad and his Grandpa George got to be friends while Dad was down helping take care of Liam.

Ketron finally getting to see the trash truck at work. One of the downsides to living in the woods.

The boys helping get the mail. The mailboxes are down the street so it is a good excuse for a daily walk.

Uncle Brent cleaning Ketron's stinky butt off in the sink and Ketron enjoying every minute of it. Uncle Brent was not use to Ketron's bowel habits and was trying not to gag. The funniest part of all is that Ketron insisted that Uncle Brent change every poopy diaper he had.

The boys showing Bi how to operate the dvd player.

At the Houston zoo.

Of course the beach and ocean was a huge hit. The boys stayed in the water for 2 hours. They were turning blue and their teeth were chattering, but never showed any signs of having enough. When the waves hit Ketron the first time it knocked him down and he looked up completely stunned at what just happened.

Watching the waves roll in with Uncle Brent.

Jon's fixing a motorcycle for a guy he works with and because it is at our house Ketron absolutely thinks it is his. Daddy starts it up for Ketron and Ketron loves to hit the throttle.
