Missouri

Tim's sister Becky invited us out to Missouri to visit her family and watch her four kids for a few days while both her and Dan were out of town. We had so much fun there and got to see lots of cool things. The first day there we went to see the arch. I had been there once before but this was Tim's first time. I had forgotten how big it was! It was too busy to go up in the arch so we just walked around there. We also got to see the Mississippi river, which is huge!! We got a picture by the river when we were there at the arch but it gets so much bigger then that even. We drove along it when we went to nauvoo and it looked like a lake cause it was so wide. it's crazy!



Tim liked to sleep in a little bit so almost every morning while we were watching them they would go wake their Uncle Tim up. I taught them his ticklish spots to give them a little help. While we were there, they put out a tornado watch warning. It was actually pretty cool cause it would thunder ever couple seconds. We both love that stormy weather like that. It scared the kids pretty bad so after a little bit we ended up taking all of them to the basement to sleep just to be safe. Nothing ended up happening luckily. We were really glad to go visit them and get to know all the kids a little better since they live so far away!

That sounds like so much fun! I am jealous we never get to go anywhere or see anything. Some day hopefully. You guys make the cuttest couple and seem so happy together!
