Fun in Houston.

While in Texas for Jill's shower we got to spend some time with Mike, Cindy, Kristen, Nathan, Ellery and Price. Ellery and Harper had such a good time and became fast friends. After we left Houston we went to the lake house in Austin for a few days. What a great place to relax!

Grand time with the Grandkids!

We had a fabulous trip to St. Louis with Taylor and Alexandria! We took the train from KC to St. Louis and stayed at the St Louis Union Station Marriott. There was a great mall attached and several places to eat within walking distance. We visited the Arch, attended a Cardinal's game and toured the St. Louis City Museum. We enjoyed lunch with Will Copeland, Chris, Rita & Mattea Davis after hearing Chris preach at his church, Oak Hill Presbyterian.  A highlight was when we returned late in the evening to KC and we couldn't get out of the parking garage because the mechanical arm would not go up.  Jeff & Taylor tried to lift it and it broke.  We had to make a quick get-away!

Taylor and Alexandria are fun to travel with. We had a great time playing, eating and laughing together.

Two alcoves across from each other.  Stand in them and you can talk to each other.

We are easily entertained!

The Mall attached to the Hotel and part of the old train station.
