Claire's First "Girls' Weekend!"

Claire was so excited to be going on her first "Girls' Weekend!" She told me she'd been waiting "her whole life" to go! We went at the end of May and visited Cabela's, T-Rex Cafe, Build-a-Dino, and Worlds of Fun.

Some of our furry friends at Cabela's.

Some friends of ours happened to be there and literally jumped into the picture.



Claire in the shooting gallery at Cabela's. Once I showed her how to line up her targets, she did fantastic!

Yes, we went from shooting to stuffing little pink dinosaurs!



Here is where Claire sat and pondered what to name her new pink friend.

And the name "Loving" wins out. Isn't that too sweet?!

Claire on the carousel at Worlds of Fun. Unfortunately, her mom gets sick on the rides that go around in circles . . . so she went by herself.

Claire's first go at driving a car. Whew! I'm glad there was a safety track!

Claire getting prepared for her rock climb. She loves doing this!



You go girl!

Another ride Claire had to brave alone. She had a good time on the Octopus!



Taking a break with a refreshing Icee drink.

Notice the people in the background flying through the picture on a bungee chord?

The "Prowler" . . . Mom's favorite ride of the day!

Absolutely soaked after standing on the bridge over the "Monsoon" ride. Claire was totally NOT expecting the incredible splash she received!

We took a train ride to rest a little and allow Miss Claire to dry off.

After riding the "Prowler," Claire opted to NOT ride the Mamba. Apparently, our coaster-freak has her limits.
