Mini-Vacay

The Childs family were in need of a vacation.

Should they go to Disney World?
No.  Too expensive.  Not enough days off.
Although I'm sure Mickey and Belle would
have done just fine in Chad and Jody's job
positions...


Should they go to Omaha to visit family?
No.  Again, not enough days off.  And they're
headed there next month.

"Where should we go?"  they thought.
How about somewhere local?
Once Jody found out about "free day" at
some local museums, and Chad booked 
a room at a local hotel... they were set.
A mini-vacation just with the fam.

Exploration Place summed up in 
5 words:  free (on Saturday, with a coupon
from the internet), castle, train track,
pilot, and water.

Gracie mostly liked riding on the play equipment

cute decorations

The train that Jada hid from Trey

She feels safe enough to leave the train set
now that her train is safely hidden.











Local hotel: restaurant eating, swimming, 
board games, popcorn, SNL

Two of her fav things: popcorn,
and a good book

Grapes!
