We
have not forgot about Elle's and Cole's Journal entries. I am behind
posting them because they take some time to type up and well, we are on
vacation. Here are a few of Elle's:
June
7: This
morning we got up, had breakfast and left Arkansas. We took a
picture at the welcome to Oklahoma sign and drove to Oklahoma City.
We saw the memorial to the Oklahoma City Federal Building that got
bombed April 19, 1995. We also saw the new Oklahoma City Federal
Building with explosion proof windows and stars that were seats.
While Cole was going to the bathroom, me and Mommy got some chalk and
wrote our names and drew pictures on these black squares that were in
the stone floor. Then Cole and Daddy came out and Daddy wrote Wehner
Vacation 2013 and Cole wrote his name and drew a picture. Then we
walked around a bit. Then we went to the Capitol. After that we went
to a restaurant called Cattlemen's. For dessert we ordered apple pie
with ice cream, strawberry shortcake, and lemon pie. Then we went to
two stores. In the first one, Mommy and Daddy each bought a shirt.
The second one we just looked. Then we started to drive out of
Oklahoma. Soon we were in Texas.

8: When we were done with breakfast we went to see the replica
of Ramone's Paint Shop in the movie Cars. It was actually a gas
station! Then we headed to Amarillo and ate an early lunch at Big
Texan Steak Ranch. I had steak and mac 'n' cheese. Then we went to
spray paint the cars but it was too windy so we took our very muddy
feet back to the car and Mommy and Daddy got some of the mud off our
feet. Then we headed to New Mexico. Finally we got to our hotel and
went to eat at the Elephant Bar and Grill. Then we stopped at Target
for a bit and then headed to the hotel.
June
9: Today was Daddy's birthday! For breakfast we went to the
Frontier. We had two pancakes and a cinna-bun. Then we walked
around the University of New Mexico and drove to the Capitol
building. Then we walked around a market and went on Canyon Road
(Santa Fe). It had a lot of art on it! Then we headed to the tram
way and got on. We went up the mountain. We got off and took some
pictures on the edge of the mountain and hiked a little. Then we got
back on the tramway. When we got off we went straight to Rudy's for
dinner. Before we left Mommy and I needed to go to the bathroom.
One of the bathroom doors said Rudys and the other said Trudys. Me
and Mommy went in Trudys and it was girls! Then we headed to Old Town
and got Daddy a birthday present. A new cup! We also snuck a magnet
even though Mommy said no. Shhhhh! Then Daddy saw the Art Museum and
took some pictures. Me and Cole were so hot we put our heads under
something that sprayed water down into a stream that poured water
into a little pool, the pool was dirty. Then we went back to the
hotel and swam in the pool. We convinced Mommy to come in, she
thought the water was really cold. Even though we said it was so hot
our teeth were chattering. Soon we all got out because it was too
cold and went upstairs to take hot showers. Then we sat on the bed
and watched half of Toy Story 3.
June
10: Today we drove to Colorado. On the way we went through Taos
and stopped at this very fancy Subway and got sandwiches for the
road. We drove and got into a forest. We got out and took a couple
pictures. Then we drove a little bit and took our picture next to the
welcome to Colorado sign. We drove to our hotel and it looked really
nice! Then we walked around a little bit and then ate dinner at
Steamworks Brewing Company. It was yummy! Then we went back to our
hotel and watched the rest of Toy Story 3.
