Having a BLAST in MO...

-
The last two weeks since my last post has been AMAZING...
We had one day in Kansas City before heading down to Branson MO... Table Rock Lake..
I had forgotten how amazing the lake was... we vacationed here as children, and am so happy we were able to bring our children... ALL of our children to the lake...
The entire family hadn't been together since my baby sis' wedding 2 years ago...
I took thousands of photos... but will just a share a few with you today....




















Pretty much EVERYTHING about the week at the lake was perfect...except our cabins...
We stayed at Kimberling Oaks "resort"in Kimberling City, MO...
lets just say a total disaster...but I will have to save that for another post.

Hope y'all are having a fab summer... can't wait to catch up on all of your blogs.
Kimberling Oaks resort, Kimberling City MO mold mildew rude horrible management

Hey you... hungry butt!

Hey you, Hungry butt!!!! .... First thought that played through my mind as I stood behind the woman in the GREY SWEATPANTS in line at the post office..... Hungry Butt is what my little sister & her friends say when referring to what in my day, was called a WEDGIE ..... "Hungry Butt" just fit the large bottom , which was gobbling its underwear in front of me.... Ugh.... the sight of her butt was burning into my mind as I waited in the ridiculously SLOW line at the post office.... No longer able to stand the site... I put my boxes down... and did the neighborly thing.... I pulled her underwear out of her butt.... You should have seen the SHOCK & SURPRISE on her face ... Ummm , OK I didn't do that... I tapped her on her shoulder & in my best AMERICAN accent announced to her & the rest of the post office... that she had the picture perfect HUNGRY BUTT... cause it was gobbling everything in sight... K... I didn't do that either... I just stood...

A visit to the ICE AGE....

Sunday... FUN-DAY, Another family day..... Because we had such nice weather, (never knowing how long it will last) we decided to take another family hike.... (2.5 hours....) around the be ach. It is funny, each week, each hike, I see changes in our family....less whining (on my part) & more time learning, enjoying our time together....Bjørn who usually gets irritated with all of my picture taking, is stopping to find things to take pictures of...appreciating colors, nature etc. Dane is less squeamish...touching & picking up all of sorts of things he finds along the hike.... Today we learned about Jettegryter or "Stone Pots" these huge rock formations from the ICE AGE .... pretty cool... these holes are formed by pebbles/gravel being aggitated by water, over thousand of years.... WOW..The holes on our local beach date back to 15,000 years.... the kids had a blast.... & wanted to stay much long...
