Hey Y'all

Yee haw!! We are finishing up a wonderful time on our family vacation (as you may or may not be keeping tabs on over at Mikey B's blog, if you haven't-what's wrong with you?)
Anywho, I'm going to do my own version, the long version of our trip (as us women always like to write novels). Hope you enjoy! I'll break it up a bit.


Here we are having lunch on the road in Funks Grove, IL. Thanks Mom for the samwitches, they were yummy. This is where we saw all the weird animals that were being walked (see Mikey's blog)


Eating delicious Nibs in the truck waiting for the damn train that was about 8 years long. Jason got stuck on the other side of the tracks, we didn't want to lose him getting to the arch.




Yeah! Pictures at the Arch. We waiting in line to go underground to the giftshop/museum area. We went through metal detectors and our bags/cameras/phones did as well too. I had to take my belt off and show them my lower legs...yep, the found the grenade launcher...poo!


Cotton fields of Arkansas. It was pretty interesting, atleast to those of us who have never before seen cotton fields. It's the fabric of our lives! It lined the roadsides like snow in some areas.

My question to mother time: why is it that it always takes longer to get to your vacation destination and shorter to get back to reality??
