Leaving Leavenworth
On the Kansas side of the Missouri River about to cross over into the state of Missouri. Photo taken from car window on Monday, May 26, 2014.

I'm fascinated by all the old buildings in Leavenworth. I wonder what the town was like in the late 19th/early 20th centuries. Sam says he thinks the town could play up its history a lot more than it does. Photo taken Sunday May 25.

Return Trip
Monday May 26, 2014
We were on the road by 9:00 a.m. Mom was driven down a week ago by Uncle Denny and returned home with us. Athena's good behavior at Sam and Becky's and also in the car impressed. Her only incident involved throwing up on the carpet and that was a result of feeding he a little faster than usual but also, we think, due to the excitement of being in a new place. The boys really enjoyed having Athena around. Just before we left Cashel said, "I'm getting used to having a dog around." Last year they were much more vocal about expressing to Sam how much they'd like to have a dog of their own. I wonder if Sam and Becky anticipated that this year and had a little talk with them because there was not a peep about it this trip.
The drive back was long and uneventful. It would be nice to break it into two days sometime in the future.
Saw a lot of these driving through Iowa:

Birthday Recovery
Sunday May 25, 2014
Slow paced morning which was great considering yesterday's busy-ness. Played a great game of Clue Cashel particularly had a great time with that. We all went to brunch at the Prairiefire Mall south of Kansas City. After that we made a stop at the American Museum of Natural History at Prairie Fire. The boys had a great time there.
