Pictures! Happy 4th of July!

Here are a few pictures that I've been preparing for a project for my Mom. I thought they were definetely blog-worthy. Happy Fourth of July 2008!!!

Last weekend, Logan and I traveled to Joplin to visit Jennifer and my Mom. Mom was getting "the works" done at the salon/spa where my sister is employed. We arrived as Mom was getting her hair cut and styled, then we all went out to lunch at Panera afterwards. Jen had to work until 5pm so she returned to the spa while Mom, Logan and I went to a flea market to look for treasures (mom found two kitchen items that were must-have's) and then a trip to the grocery store for dinner items. That evening, Jen took me to Braums for ice cream and we picked up a rental movie to watch. The next morning we took lots of pictures, played with Logan, ate a good breakfast and helped Jen put her apartment back together after Logan made a mess of everything. It was a really nice visit--the first time I had seen Jen and Jacob's apartment. They have a really nice place, very spacious, yet cozy. The drive home was better than the drive to Joplin. It poured on the way to Joplin, Logan was screaming just for the fun of it and I could barely see the car in front of me. It was practically white-out conditions. But like I said, the drive back to Columbia was more enjoyable and Logan slept for half of it, so I can't complain about that! In a couple of weeks we're heading to Wyoming for the annual family gathering on that side of the family. Now that's going to be a long car ride!

love, rebecca
