The animals in the back did relatively well on this 12-hour drive…
The Prius, however, has had better days. About the time we hit Oklahoma a piece from the (ground effects) of the car fell down. As long as we were cruising along, it didn't seem to effect us but anytime we slowed down or made a pit stop (and there were quite a few) there would be a horrible scraping sound and people would turn & stare. And then I would get out, crouch down and punch up the front piece of plastic… which would last a few minutes while we crept out of the parking lot.

Thank God handyman Drew fixed it as soon as we got to mom's house.
Owen in his element. Chasing cats around grandma's yard.
My favorite spot of the week was on mom's porch swing.
I think that Missouri's best weather is in the fall- the mornings are cool & crisp, the bugs disappear, and it is just beautiful all around. This fall was no exception. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to the rain from the porch swing on more than one occasion.
Roasting dozens of tomatoes...
We (Kaden, Owen, mom and Kyle) made a trip down to St. Louis one afternoon and visited the City Museum.
I can really see this place being an awesome spot for the boys once they get a bit older. There were so many places to crawl and hide that is was overwhelming for Kaden.
There was also a 3-story slide inside the building.

A rainbow inside a rainbow…
LOVED seeing this!
We drove to the Delmar Loop for dinner at Pi (delicious Chicago-style pizza joint).
LOVED seeing this!
