Stage 3: 14 Beds in 41 Days...

and hopefully NOT counting anymore.
Oh, the places we have been!
We were SO blessed to be able to see most of our family on our way out of the states.
(Sorry Florida, your turn is next)
Luke was able to get a month of vacation time so we tried to make the most of it.
The final leg of our journey was spent in Missouri enjoying family, old friends, and the outdoors.
Here are a few of the bajillion pics we snapped.

Camping "down home" in the mud and the rain at Duncan's Bridge, Mo.

My studly man chopped this tree down with his bare hands...oh yeah, and with the help of his little friend named "axe."

4 Generations!
In front of the house that's been in the family sine the 1800s.

They were trying to recruit Porter. He said he'd have to "sink aboud it"

Dear, old friends

Swimming, Missouri style.
Indoors.

Biking part of the MKT trail in Rolla, Mo.
(When we were growing up, we were lucky enough to have Twin Lakes, the MKT , and a river run right behind our 3 acres backyard.
So fun!)

Thank you, Dad, for sponsoring this fun day!
