Surprisingly, Kansas reminded me a lot of Idaho. My parents have a beautiful home on 10 acres of land in a small town called Iola, Kansas. There's even a big pond right behind their house. The town reminded me of Fruitland and has the cutest main street.
We spent the first few days of our week in Branson, Missouri. My parents live just a few hours from the border of Missouri so we rented a Cabin in Branson and went to an amusement park there called Silver Dollar City. It was so much fun! We had a blast riding roller coasters, seeing all the beautiful lights, and even touring a cave!
The remainder of the time was spend playing loads of games, eating delicious food, and playing with Leo. I sure enjoyed my time with family and it went by way too fast. 3 new states, 2 new mountain ranges, 40 hours in a car, and I already can't wait until the next time we all get to be together again.

Probably my favorite moment from when we acted out the Nativity. Leo was baby Jesus and all the bro-in-laws were the Wisemen. They each had a toy Leo loved and tried to get him to go to their present. haha It was hilarious. Christian and his noise-making blocks won. :)
