To the delight of our neighbors, and those super loud people across Mur-Len, the Royals one the World Series! No, I'm glad too. I'm sure they're nice boys.
All the locals went crazy! And now we can finally get some sleep after hosting and attending countless game watching parties. I've had lots of snacks....more pretzel bites than I care to admit...and pretended to watch more baseball than ever before.
Now all we have left is the Royals Parade in downtown.
Mark played hookie from work, school was cancelled and he took the boys downtown.
It was crazy!
The parade was cool....if you could see it. Which they couldn't.
And they dyed the fountains blue.
Mostly they did a lot of walking around in crowds. But someday they will be able to say that they were there and they were a part of that huge crowd.
I decided to take the girls up to the zoo for the day. Unfortunately, the zoo is is Swope Park and so was one of the bus stops for people going to the Royals Parade. We were feeling pretty good about our choice to skip the madness.
We went to the Birds of Prey show (always fun).
And ate our low-fat pumpkin chocolate chip cookies we brought in the cooler and played with the stuffed snakes they convinced me to buy while we watched the sea lion show.
We rode out to Africa to see the chimpanzees and then back again for penguins and polar bear.
It was a nice full day and fun to spend it with my girls.
