The Cousins with Hats
















We stayed at Ben's Uncle Pete and Aunt Brenda's house over New Years to visit. Both Uncle Pete and Cousin Anthony, Ben's cousin, has a collection of hats. All three of the kids were fascinated and they had to try on the hats and were acting silly.

New Years 2009
















We finally arrived! We then got back in the car and drove another 1 1/2 hours to Ohio to celebrate New Years with family. Crazy? Maybe, but the kids did really well. We played the redneck game. See if you can spot the endings to "You might be a redneck if..." It was quite funny.

St. Louis Day 3
















Yes, THREE DAYS! The third day wasn't such a long day either, I think we only drove for 6-8 hours. Cora was unthrilled about the arch as you can see. The third day went really well. I think the only significant thing that happened was that Cora took a huge poop and when we pulled off to change it there was no ramp to get back on the highway. We had to back track a few miles, but we managed. Oh and Cora had managed to just fall asleep when we reached an exit to change the poop. Darn the bad luck on that one. A few cookies later, she was as good as new. We also started a car game of "can you find the water tower."
