Trip to Missouri

LeAnn had everybody come out to her home in Fulton, MO for a family reunion. We flew into Kansas City, rented a car, and drove out to the middle of the state. We were there from the 28th of June to the 2nd of July.

Miles had so much fun. He loves his Hancock cousins:


Miles and Mavrik


Brayden, Kiersten, and Miles

Winston Churchill gave a famous speech on the Iron Curtain in Fulton years ago. The college he spoke at now has remains of the Berlin Wall on display. Lisa got a cute picture of Miles standing in a hole in the wall. Someday when he understands the significance of the Berlin Wall he might think this is a cool picture.



Poor little Hailey! She was so tired this trip. She didn't sleep much during the day so when we went to sleep at night she slept straight through the night and well into the morning. Miles would be galloping around the hotel room, the lights would be turned on, and we'd be making lots of noise. She wouldn't budge.

Missouri sure is pretty! This is outside of Craig's parents home.


LeAnn took us to the state capitol too. Here's Miles checkin' out a cannon.


Jefferson City, MO


Ice cream always hits the spot.

Did I mention Hailey was exhausted pretty much the whole time??



Keeping a two-year-old and a 3-month-old happy on an airplane is tricky. But, we managed. Here's a cool picture from the airplane window on the way home.


Thanks LeAnn. You did a good job keeping 18 people happy and busy while we visited you!

Miles sure looks like he enjoyed all the attention from his cousins. What a great trip. The sleeping Hailey pictures are precious. Can't wait to hear more about it.
