Friday

We left Friday morning and drove to Miama, Oklahoma. Jarrett's aunt and uncle live there. Jarrett had fun catching up with his uncle, he hasn't seen him for years.

Jarrett and I stopped by his grandmother's assisted living home. She was doing better than we expected.

We drove on and into Joplin, Missouri. Jarret's cousin rides BMX bikes and brought everyone to the indoor park where he rides. James and Kelly (and Jarrett) all really wanted to try it.

We drove through town and saw the tornado destruction. It was so sad to see.

This is the local high school. There was supposed to be a gratuation here on the day of the tornado but they had moved it to the college. It probably saved hundreds of lives.

We drove through the evening and pulled into Springfield, Missouri for the night. We took the kids down to the pool for a late night swim.
