After dropping off TJ and Lily (with many tears) we headed out of Missouri. We really enjoyed our time in the scenic state and especially at New Tribes. The campus is extensive and houses around 180 students, 250 staff, and their dependents. It's certainly a thriving community.
We drove through Kansas City and had redemptive BBQ at Gates. We all got into it- even Levi chomped down on a bone or two:)
From there we headed north to Dos Moines, Iowa. We made it in time to see the fair. It was an unexpected and spontaneous surprise. We ate deep fried pickle dogs, cheese curds, funnel cake, and fresh chocolate milk and ice cream. Saw HUGE horses (standing taller than Kyle!) and cows- the best in the state! There were some beautifully restored tractors and basically you could tell it was a major deal.
Kyle had a day of work and the boys and I hung out at a nice hotel and ran around to find some playgrounds and other fun things to do. Now we're moving on. Tonight Wyoming and tomorrow we arrive in Idaho.
The boys are also doing some amazing things. Levi started spontaneously counting correctly to ten and making up songs and Judah is up on all 4's and rocking. He's not 'crawling' but has crawled. They're amazing:)
Until next time- Happy Trails!
