Mom's first post

I think this will be a great way to see everyone's pictures and videos.

I thought I would start with some photos from our trip to Missouri. We had a great time and Jace didn't complain about to much "church" but after three days of it he was ready to have some fun time.

Branson was fun, and Dad and I were happy to have kids experience it so we didn't come back sounding like a couple of oldsters who like Branson - because Jesse and Jace had fun too. Maybe the rest of you will want your turns at Branson. We found a profession for Jesse - he could become an apprentice for the baskteweaver at Silver Dollar City. I have no idea how well it pays, but it would be a pretty low key profession and you could enjoy nature and people and working with your hands, which doesn't sound too bad.

We saw a couple shows and went to the Silver Dollar City (amusement park, with more shows and demonstrations than rides, but enough rides for Jace to be satisfied.)Dad and I thought the yodeler was pretty awesome - they were having an international festival with performers from around the world. Lucky aliza was brought a CD of yodeling music for her birthday (Swiss/cowboy songs). I'm sure the rest of you are jealous.

I'm excited to see everyones posts!
Love,
Mom
