Since school was out, we decided to take a road trip for a week. First, we headed to Carthage with great intentions of making it to Joplin to eat at Pizza by Stout. Those plans were cancelled when the bad tornado hit Joplin making it a big mess. We are very sad that PBS was destroyed, but are hopeful that it will be reopened someday.
We got lots of jump time on PoPo's trampoline and yes, that is Meekin, naked on it. He has decided that he doesn't like to be wet or dirty and so when he gets wet or dirty, he strips himself down. Mom told him he couldn't take a bath (he likes to start the bath and put himself in, unsupervised), so he stripped down and ran back outside, right in between Mom and PoPo. He jumped on the trampoline and was as happy as he could be. Little brothers are something else. Especially this one!
Since our date at PBS was cancelled, we went to Sonic's play area with Colson and Jane instead. It was very wet and we were very dirty, but we sure had a good time!
Meekin's shorts got wet, so there he was again, stripping them off. Fortunately, we were the only ones there and they didn't have to see him strip and change clothes over and over!
Boys...sand...water...life is good!
Jane got down and dirty with us too!
When we left Carthage, we headed for Hermitage and joined in on a garage sale with Michelle's family. We've adopted Jo and Preston's grandparents as our own since they took such good care of us and like all good grandparents, really indulged us. Shel took a break from the sale to read a book to Preston and Meekin.
While we were at the sale, Daddy worked on the bath house and well at Pittsburg. He made a lot progress!
It was fun to be gone, but it sure is good to be home!
