Our family trip this year was to a beautiful lodge near Kirksville, MO. Dad & I drove out Thursday morning, wandering back roads and taking our time. Our lodge was on this lovely lonely gravel road.
Later that night, Tori brought Sarah, Jewel, & Josh; and Ben & Coreena arrived soon after (before?? Idr). Friday morning Dad & I had planned to do some thrifting and sightseeing, and everyone else wanted to come too so we had a good time!
Always good to find some history.
And thrift stores.
And this pizza was delicious.

Meanwhile, the rest of our crowd was on their ways at various times...
oops😕
Thankfully, everyone arrived safely by suppertime.
Saturday morning.
😍
After breakfast, everyone participated in a few games,
read a few books,
wrote a few poems,
(why didn't I save any????? They were GOOD)
built a few towers,
drew a few pictures,
took a turn at the puzzle,
went down the tunnel slide,
took a short walk,
and then Dad & I had a tough job judging...
and I don't even remember who won, but I think everyone had fun... so everyone won😊😊😊
After lunch, everyone enjoyed the beautiful pond.
😍
From Ben's drone -
Pickleball tournament started Saturday morning and continued all day, and by that night, Dad & I were undefeated 😳
Beautiful evening outside after supper.
There was a .3 mile nature trail that started here by the cornfield and went through the woods. Not sure why I got no px but there were two wooden bridges that were pretty neat.
I brought Skye back, and the rest took the long way around the pond.
