The Devil's Icebox

While in Missouri, we drove down to Columbia and checked out this state park with a pretty extensive cave system and a cavern called The Devil's Icebox.  We didn't actually go into the cave, since we were packing a dozen children, but we got to the entrance and checked it out.  The weather was perfect and the park was beautiful.  Who knew Missouri had cool hikes? 
 
The whole gang again!

And even Uncle Shane was there...

Loving the Missouri Heat

This has been the summer of travel so far, as we've been up and down Interstate 37 multiple times the past month, going here and there and everywhere.  Near the end of June, we took the long drive back up to Missouri to the home of the Millers.  It was hot, yes, but would you expect anything less from Missouri in summer?  It was great to see everyone, as it was the first time we'd all been together in at least a few years.  It made for a busy place, with twelve kids running around causing havoc, but it was all a good time.  We played a lot of croquet, amongst other games, and just enjoyed the summer vacation.  Hopefully it won't be too long before the next time!

The lot of us.

A whole dozen of them...











Loads of fun with everyone.  Until the next time!
