More Cousin fun
Day 7: At the park
One Beautiful Church, St. Charles
Day 10: It is never easy to say goodbye. It was time to leave Missouri, we had already extended our stay by 2 days. My Mom needed help back in Arkansas, she still hadn't been able to settle in her new house. We had to say "See you soon" to our Mid West family. We had many many tears. Katie and Molly became the best of friends/cousins. They have a very special bond...a beautiful friendship.
Truly one of my best friends/cousin. I wish we lived next door to each other. She makes me smile!
My sweet Aunties!!
We stopped in Pacific, Missouri. I had learned my Great Grandfather had built a Catholic church in this darling town. The girls and I couldn't pass up the opportunity to check out a piece of our history. We pulled up to this gorgeous piece of land and there she stood, so proud.
OH, did I happen to find a little shopping on the way out of town..Geeeshh! Picked up a new vintage cross. It currently hangs in my bedroom, enclosed in glass with a rock from my grandfathers church.
The grease factor, we couldn't pass up the chance to try this puppy out. Fabulous burgers!
10 hours later (no thanks to the navigation in the car)...we arrive back to grandma
And looky what we have here....another beautiful barn...smile
Day 14 Back to California, with tears in my eyes and love in the soul.
