Raising two little girls in an ever changing world

From the Sandhills to the Flint Hills, our journey west

5 states!



4 days!



3 nights!



2 little girls!



and 1 dog!

After the movers left with our things we headed West! Go West Young Family, Go West!




The first day was a half day of driving because Roger still had clearing to do at Ft Bragg. That night we drove to Asheville, NC. Because it is near where Roger's brother David lives, we were able to have lunch with him. We found a great BBQ place in town and had a nice visit.




Jena loved the old fashion Coke machine.




The girls are really going to miss their Uncle David. After lunch we continue west to Tennessee.







Hershey did pretty well on the ride despite it being her first long trip. We stayed in Nashville that night before heading on.




The next day we headed for Sikeston, Mo home of Lamberts and The Throwed Roll.




On the way we stopped at the Indian mounds.






Finally we made it to Lambert's.


It has changed a lot since Roger and I were there 15 years ago. We had to get a number!






And we hung out while we waited.


And then we got to go in and EAT!










The next day we visited the home out author Laura Ingalls Wilder.





























I loved her books growing up and was so happy to take the girls to see the home!


The next day we made it to Kansas, our new home! I'm working on pictures of the house, so hopefully we will post them soon.
