While Ahenobarbus' family was here, we took a road trip. Our first stop was in Hannibal, MO - the home of Mark Twain. We spent the morning touring his boyhood home and museum, had lunch in the park and then explored the cave named after him. (It's also the cave he used for inspiration for his books!)
That night we drove to Keokuk, IA and spent the evening swimming in the hotel pool - this is undoubtedly Beemer's favorite part of the trip. She REALLY wants to stay in another hotel so she can swim some more!
The next day we spent the day visiting Nauvoo and Carthage, IL. We had beautiful weather - no rain and not to hot. I think we almost got to see and do everything we wanted to. We were all exhausted by the time we got home that night, but it was a fabulous, if all too short, road trip. (For more information on Nauvoo and Carthage, please click here.

looks like a fun trip!
Packing it all in always seems more exhausting with kids. But it sounds like you had fun. Beemer is starting to look so old!
It looks like a great trip. Someday I would love to see those places. I love the slide shows.
Oh awesome!!! I took that exact trip when I was 17 and loved every second of it!!! I love your pictures, you make me want to go again!
