Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness

I'm finally getting around to getting the blog updated since our last trip. And wow what a trip it was. This was really our first long car trip in the 24 years we've been married. It was grand! We went to Lance's home in Liberty, Missourri. Spent a couple of days in their home and then went to The Great Wolf Lodge and swam and ate and swam some more.

We also went to a Cardinals/Royals baseball game and watched the Cards get whooped badly. Lance was pretty pleased about that. Jeff was not.


We also went to this supposedly nice little park unaware of the lurking danger in the grass. Needless to say Jeff has a nasty itch and welts to remind him of his mission days when they had to take care of Chigger outbreaks on there legs. He refused to let me take pictures of his outbreak for fear it would dement all of you. The funny thing was he kept talking of his experiences on his mission with these ugly beasts and then he was the worst affected. Dan and I have only one or two places on us and they were very mild compared to Jeffs. Then of course the baby blessing for Masen Maverick Carter was just grand. What a privilege to be able to witness this blessed event. To see the Priesthood used in such a wonderful way. Lance did a great job and gave such a beautiful blessing. What a great summer for traveling. We have been very blessed the whole time. No storm disasters while we were gone and no one got sick during the trips.
