The next morning Steve got up early to go to the "Fun Run" His brother Jim did make it out, but Sue's daughters did not. Steve was teasing them about that later. After the run, Steve and Jim went over to the Ministerial Breakfast at the Methodist Church. Jessica went with Lois to get lined up for the parade. Before you knew it was time for us to go over and find a spot to watch the parade. Here comes the Flag! The parade is about to start. During this time the person announcing the parade was reading a poem. I have tried to find out what it was, but have not had any luck. After the flag

I can't believe I let this go for so long. Ok let's get back on track. It is still Tuesday, July 3rd. The girls and I have finished our stroll around town and the guys are back from playing basketball at the rec center. Arnold is known for having various events through out the year. The Fourth of July Blowout is the one we would be attending. Here is what is planned for the event. You will notice that the activities actually start on July 3rd with some game booths at the city park. We passed by this when we were out earlier and got to take a peek at what you could get if you won the games

I'm in too!

So glad she won and happy to have been able to help her out.

Wow! They don't look anything at all like I thought they would. Probably been posting fake pictures on Facebook to protect themselves.

Happy Birthday to Mrs. TCD! Add me to the list of people who would love to go on a Disney Cruise.

Done.

Great update. I love the new site and as usual love the pictures of the boys.

Those are cool!

What! Brent you didn't get pictures. Well actually I suppose we owe you a debt of gratitude for this.

Praying for all involved.

Genia, I don't like to make promises I can't keep. Great report Brent!

I found it!

So no one yet is Norwegian and no one is fessing up about having a wedgie. :rofl3: :rofl2: I don't know if we found anyone who had a wedgie, but we did find a Norwegian. Of course in true TCD fashion, you will have to wait for that part of the trip report.

The next morning we got up and took turns getting into the bathroom for showers. You don’t realize how fortunate you are to have multiple bathrooms in your home until you only have one. Eventually Steve’s brother stopped by again. Steve, Jim (that’s his brother), Drew and Jessica decided to go across the road to the Cardinal Inn for breakfast. They did not take any pictures, but Jessica said it was good. Rachel and I stayed behind as we still need to get ready for the day. When we finished we were going to walk across the road to meet them. But before we could cross the road we noticed th

After a restful night’s sleep we were ready to get back on the road. First though we would need to get some breakfast. There was a Denny’s right by the hotel so that is where we decided to go. Before you knew we were back on the road and couple of hours later we were driving by here. Then we exited of I 70 and got on to I 435. This Casino has sentimental value to us. Not because we would go gambling there, but rather we would go there to eat when Steve’s dad lived in Liberty, MO. He loved his buffets. The next thing you know we saw this and we started hearing, “I want to go to W

Yeah you're here! You did! You did! My son was very disappointed that they did not include the arch scene in the Percy Jackson Movie. He felt they left a critical element from the book out. I have been there too, but I think the last time that I actually went up to the top I was about Jessica's age. I will let you know, but please warn me before you spit. I want to make sure I am out of the way.

:yourekillinme: :rotfl6:

So are you saying Jessica could have a friend in there or not? :clint: If she could we should probably find a time to meet your family before she gets there. :rofl3:

Mine too. Quick someone sing something else. We use the GPS that we have in the car and the one on the phone, but when there is more than one way of getting there then his engineering mind starts going into over-drive. "Do we go this way?" Do we go that way?" "What happens if we go this way?" Will there be a lot of traffic?" Yeah it's a good thing he didn't go into management. Decision making is not his strong suit. :rofl3:

The child is not "cured" she is in remission. She is a 4 year old child who has gone through treatments that no child should ever go through since she was 2 years old. What truly angers me about this whole thing is the father saying she is cured. His daughter has been diagnosed with cancer as such he should be well aware of all the facts of childhood cancer. No child is considered "cured" until they have been in remission for at least 5 years. This and the ignorant line put in the movie Ted (which I refuse to see), "Don't peek or you will get childhood cancer." not only angers me, but mak

I am in too! I love the list idea. Did you get them all done?

Ok. That break really put us behind. Steve is now working from home. There are pros and cons of this. I no longer have to worry about if the girls are going to stay home or go with me if I have to go somewhere during the day. But, it's cutting into my Fiend time. :rofl3: It was now my turn to drive. So, Jessica had the camera. We told her to be sure to get a picture of her future home. Here it is. :rofl3: :rofl2: Yup she is trouble with a Capital T. Gonna need to keep an eye on that one. After awhile she starting playing around with Tweety Bird. I believe she had him dancing and sing

Sorry I missed that Now part. I will get back to this shortly. Good, but you better behave or I might need to separate you two. Sadly No. We are traveling from Alabama. So the states we go through are: Tennesse, Kentucky, Illinois (no where near Chicago), Missouri, and a little bit of Iowa. to reach Nebraska. It was not your fault at all. We always started our day too late and then packed to much into it. I had so many people I was hoping to be able to see when we were in Omaha, but I only got to meet up with one of them. It was a friend that I had not really spent time with since I
