Vacation part 2...

Here are a few more pictures from our trip.
This was one of Maddie's favorite things to do everyday while we were there. Picking tomato's from Grandpa's small garden.

My child would never, ever in a million years eat a tomato to safe her life, but my Grandpa has this cherry tomato plant that sprung up in his yard. And I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw my child eat them.







On the road again......

We headed here. The Missouri Department of Conservation. Inside they have a small nature center. It was neat and it was Free!

Outside, they have nature! There is also this huge nature trail that you can walk. But we passed on the trail. The heat took care of that. Here is a model of the nature trail.

This was a small table that had items that kids could touch. There was deer antler's, fur,and feather's that they could play with.







This was neat and kind of spooky. They had this chest that had multiple drawers on it. When you opened a drawer, you got a "surprise." Thank goodness they were all fake.



The nature center also had an outdoor Humming bird garden. You can sit and watch all the birds from inside the center.

Stay tuned for more........
