MO Vacation

We just made it back from our 10 day trip to MO...well, actually we've been back but you try blogging with 3 at home, mountains of laundry and a dirty house!! Luckily today the boys went to kids camp and Lila's taking a long nap so I have time to blog...

We had a great 4th of July trip, as always!! The boys had a ball and Cade cried for the 1st 20 minutes after we left b/c he DID NOT want to leave!

Here are the highlights:

-Jack and Cade jumped off the point 25 cliff (it's a BIG deal...trust me)

-Jack actually did a flip (only b/c some drunk highschoolers floating in the water near us were chanting, "flip, flip, flip") And, yes I was scared out of my mind, but he landed ok on that one! DAD let him do it again later and the landing was not so nice...face flop...OUCH!!! No more flips for Jack...probably ever!!!

-Lila is my only one before the age of 2 who did not try any chance she got to jump off the dock (she does wear a life jacket at all time, just in case). She was a good little girl and just walked around the whole time. There sure is a gender difference!!!

-Eric was Cornhole King...b/c it was his game and he's the only one who knew how to play! But everyone loved it!

-We went to Steal Your Dollar City. It was really fun! The boys rode rollercoasters and got to do most of the big rides.

-Eric and I got to celebrate our 9th Anniversary with one whole night kid free!!! It was awesome and much needed. Eric surprised me with a "couples retreat" at a near by hotel. I got my 1st ever massage...it was fabulous!!!

We had a GREAT time!! I have some pictures, but not a lot, b/c my battery died and I forgot the charger...oh well...
