4th of July at Kris' Campground

We were invited for a family gathering at Kris' campground in Monroe City for July 4th week-end. Kristi, Oma, and Alayna went up on Friday and spent the night in a motel - NOW THAT IS CAMPING!!! They had a lot of fun. Kristi, Alayna, and Aunt Kris went to Hannibal and met Aunt Gail so they could walk around the craft festival they were having. Mom and Uncle Larry stayed behind. Kristi said they had BBQ chicken for supper and she said it was really good. They had fun shooting off fireworks after dark. On Saturday, Tom and I went up to join them for a short time then Kristi came back home because someone had to take care of the cats and Kristi really needed to write a paper for one of her classes. We visited for a while, had lunch and then we headed back to the hotel to unload the van and let Alayna take a nap. We had burgers and brats for dinner and then Tom got his exercise shooting fireworks off for us. I really enjoyed all the other fireworks that were going off around us. On Sunday morning we left and came home really early. Tom, Krist, Alayna, and I had to run to Kansas City and Oma wanted to rest. Great week-end.
