Well we've decided to stay one more day in Liberty, and leave here Saturday morning. We've had such a great time, and the weather has been so amazing, that we'd like one more day before we head home. Also, my brother picks up his daughter Kierra tomorrow evening and we'd like to see her before we leave.
We've kept very busy while we've been here, with the weather in the 90s the past two days, we've just been drawn to outdoor activities. Yesterday we spent a few hours at the Kansas City Zoo. We had a great time, and my sister Becky went with us. Afterward we came back to Liberty and had frozen custard at Sheridan's. Yesterday evening, Becky took the Kindra and Anna to the mall, Kindra got her ears pierced again....something she's been wanting to do for awhile now. Mom and Allen watched Noah and Amaya while Pavan, me and my brother went out to dinner. We went to a barbecue place in Kearney called the Outlaw. We had a great time, it was nice to sit and talk without the kids for a change.
Today Pavan, Allen, Anna and Noah headed up to Galatin, MO to Vince's farm. Vince is a friend of Allen's, and Allen helps Vince farm up there by driving the big tractors. (As you can tell, I know nothing about farming!). Anyway, they spent the day up there at the farm, and judging from the pictures they took, they had a great time! Noah and Anna got to drive the tractor with Allen, and Noah has been talking about the trip ever since they got back.
I had Amaya and Kindra with me. Mom took the day off work, and Becky was off too, so we all ran around together. We picked up my friend, Tricia, at noon and all went to lunch together. I haven't seen Tricia in a long time so we had a great time catching up. We went to McDonalds so the kids could play while we visited.
This afternoon Aunt Freda came over and we went to the cemetary in Rayville, MO....which is where my great grandmother (Granny Wood) and great grandfather (Papa Wood), as well as several other family members are buried. I won't be here for Memorial Day, so I really wanted to get out there while I was in town. It's quite a drive, and is pretty much in the middle of nowhere, but I've always loved it there. Aunt Freda stayed at Mom's for dinner, and we walked over to the church with Kindra and Anna this evening for Maundy Thursday service. It's my favorite service of the entire year, so meaningful. Anna did the Lord's Supper for the first time this evening, which was special too.
I'm headed to bed. We will leave Liberty Saturday afternoon and be back to Rhinelander on Sunday.
