Missouri Trip

Well last week I went to Missouri to see my family with Angela. It was so great to see everyone. The trip up there was pretty good. It went a lot faster then I thought it would traveling with two babies. We got to my parents house Tuesday night. Only my dad was there since mom was still in St. Louis so he had dinner ready when we got there. We stayed In West Plains till Friday when mom called and said the doctor told her she could go home for the memorial day weekend. We were so excited so Angela and me loaded up the kid and drove the three hours to St. Louis. It took us close to four hours having to stop and feed the babies once. Anyway we got there and saw the house my mom has been staying in. It's called the hope lodge and it is for adult cancer patients. We met a couple of the residents but most had already left for the long weekend. It's a nice place and were glad she gets to stay there. After a hour or so we started heading back to West Plains with mom. I had the great job of sitting in the back with the babies sticking Elliot's pacifier back in every minute and entertaining Devin who was quite sick of sitting in her car seat. We made it though and mom was so happy to be home even though it was just for the weekend. We left on Monday to come back and dad took mom back to St. Louis. It was so sad to leave and everyone was crying but we are praying that mom will get to come home soon and we will be able to visit more often. Thanks for keeping her in your prayers!
