It's still Fri-Yay!

Continuing with our trip to Missouri. 
Cheyanne sent these Death by Chocolate cupcakes
with Jeff when he picked us up on Monday.

This was a Mural in President Harry S Truman Memorial Museum. 
It goes into the replica of his Oval officw


The next 3 photos are of the Oval Office




After he moved home this was his office in Independance, Missouri 

This Quote was on the wall by the Libray/Office

Here we are by the Harry S Truman statue.


I gave Cheyanne the WallHanging and Towel 
That I finished in Missouri. 

Next we went to Independence Square. 
Near there Harry worked at a Soda Shop.
We met Milton and Christen there.
We had ice Cream sundaes and milkshakes. 
Then we drove to Liberty Jail
We had dinner at Jeff and Cheyanne's home.
We got to chat with Elder Seth Crowther 
Who called while we were together. 

We had to use the Airport Shuttle to get
 back to the Airport. 

Windchimes/ Spinners in the Airport. 

I took 2 sample pack boxes home on the 
plane to share
So yummy!

More next week to finish the catch-up posting.

WOW - Wednesday

Last Wednesday and the Month is nearly over.
I had a fun time at the Birthday Bash those Pictures are in the last post.

We enjoyed going to Museums with
 Jeffery and Cheyanne.
Our Trip to Hamilton ended at the 
Hamilton Quilt Museum.
I missed seeing it when we were in Missouri
 almost 2 years ago.
So many Quilts, Toy Machines, Thimbles, 
and Older machines.
The Big Aurifil Spool was there.

And a Limo covered with Quilt blocks

The Toy Sewing Machines

Nativity of Thimbles

Shelf after shelf of Thimbles...

Zoom in to see up close.

The Doll Beds and Dressers with Miniature Quilts them - made by Pat Kuhns
20 Years of making them.

This room had some of Jenny Doan's Quilts.
Every room made you stop and say AWE!!!
These were Old Quilts.

These Quilt Tops on the pews were for Sale! $175.00


 Next day was Sunday!
The World War 1 Museum was very informative.
This Quilt was one made with the names of Gold Star Heros embroidered on.
I didn't take pictures of the Trenches and Cannons. 


These tiny Planes hanging represent the Pilots many trips to airlift supplies after the War.

The story of the Candy Bomber is familiar to us.
LT Gail S Halverson was a Member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.
 
We weren't going to go up the Memorial Tower,
but we did go back and add that ticket to our Museum pass.
It taller than the Statue of Liberty
This was the Panoramic View of Kansas City from the Top

Chey didn't get to come and asked for a photo of us by the Tower.
I can't believe I did it.

We felt that Visiting with our son in a place of Remembrance was ok for a Sunday.
We visited the grounds of the Kansas City Temple

He took our picture there.

Still a little Jet Lagged. 
But it's only 2 hours difference. 

What are you working on today?
I have a project to finish for 
Sister Bennett's late Birthday!
I have procrastinated it almost too long.
