You can’t take the Kentucky out of ME!!

Does this picture not say Kentucky boy? It’s in his blood!!! He falls asleep every night with a stuffed cardinal bird under his arm. We believe in training them young…I’ll have to blog an entire post on John’s room (Cubs and Cards) some other time.

We love whenever we get to go back to visit our beloved Kentucky. Unfortunately this trip didn’t allow for the time to make our usual stop in Lexington…hopefully next time.
We packed the week full…and John and Ben’s grandparents made sure they came home with lots of great memories.
Here are some of the great times we had:
The Newport acquarium

Grilling out with Sharon and Marvin and picking a watermelon about 2 months too soon.

Wrestling with Uncles…. Pictured below is Uncle Brad…or is it Uncle Derek…John could never quite make up his mind…those Kelty men look so much alike.
The followig moves are the Big Splash/nuckle sandwhich and an elbow drop….moves taught to him by daddy and Uncle Mike.

Chuck-E-Cheese…a big hit!!!

John enjoyed playing in the pool while ben just enjoyed playing pool!!!
Hanging out with Goo paw….
and many many more memories. We ate great food and just had a good time being with family we love so much. Brad (future chef) made me a delicious peach apple and blackberry pie from scratch…oh my. I also loved getting to have some good sister time with Kelly who will be bringing a new cousin into the world this February!!! John got to have a date with both Sharon and Dale and he loved all the time and attention.
We miss you so much already…thanks for making our vacation great!!!
We love you all!!!

    Don’t you know that Chuck E. Cheese is a special place for GRANDparents to take their GRANDchildren? My kids don’t know that parents are even allowed to go in there…you guys are braver than I! :o)

    Aaahhh….Lexington…it’s been YEARS since I’ve been back. Would love a big piece of fudge pie from Ramsey’s. We may make it to a UK football game this year. I’ll have to hit some of the old haunts.

    Glad to hear about your trip. So good to keep up with you now!
