Live from Michigan!!


Well 4 days and 2000 miles later we have arrived!! We had to drive through Wyoming, Colorado, Kansas, Missouri, Illinois and Indiana to get here!! This shot was taken from the car, but it documents our very happy arrival into Kalamazoo, where we live!!


(These are out of order, but whatever)The Gateway Arch in St. Louis, Missouri


Another shot of it...


Me and my cousin, Kat


Kat and her husband Mark are interning and living in Chicago and they were kind enough to put us up for our last night. We had a blast hanging out with them in downtown Chicago.


We spent our last leg of the trip driving north of Chicago through Lake Forest, IL where my dad used to live. Between that and seeing the sights of Chris' mission it was a heavy dose of nostalgia for both of us.

Sarah, you did a very good job on documenting the trip. It's cool that I know what everything looks like so now when you guys talk about it I can picture it better.

I have never seen that arch. It looks so cool. We had so much fun with you guys. We're so glad that you could stay with us. You got us really excited about Kansas City too. We still haven't heard anything though. That shuttlecock statue picture is hilarious. Hopefully we can come out and see you soon.

I got a comment on my blog from your mom. She is so sweet. She was talking about how she is just get used to this blogging stuff.haha. I still am too. But it is so much easier to keep in touch with people now.

You made it! Looks like it was quite the adventure getting there. I would love to get my hands on one of those shakes! YUM. That's so funny that Chris saw us on TV. I think he may have been the only one. :)
