to and from Joplin...

We took our first road trip as a family of five to Joplin, MO last month. Dan's grandma passed away and we attended the funeral and spent the weekend with extended family. Although it was a long ride, I was impressed with how well our kids did. We made a longer stop in DesMoines on our way south and Kansas City as we headed home to break up the trip. Most of our time in Missouri was spent corralling the kids so I don't have any pictures from our actual destination.
