Dancing on a post in a Japanese garden

Sitting on a rock that looked like a toilet.

In Branson, Missouri at a resort swimming pool where Chris almost drowned, because Amanda tried to kill him.

In Missouri playing mini-golf. You can't tell from this picture but Amanda got three really big bug bites on her stay here.

At the resort pool: Amy and Amanda hanging out.

Chris got all tired from walking around the Japanese Stroll Garden and decided to take a nap. He says he wants this kind of mattress once we lose the one we have now.

Amanda lining up a lucky shot while playing croquet at the Branson resort. We borrowed the room from Amanda's uncle Guy and played there for a day.

The best croquet player ever is pictured sitting next to a pole.

Amanda feeding a koi fish at the Japanese Garden. There were so many of them expecting free food!

They say that if you could hop across all the stepping stones without falling down to the jaws of hungry fish then you are granted one wish.

Chris had been wishing for a duck crochetted out of plastic grocery bags since Christmas and finally got it. Isn't it so cute?

The most adventurous thing that we did in Missouri was ride this covered inner tube. We flipped off of it several times but it was a blast!

Okay so Amanda is making a funny face in this picture, but here is Amanda and Amy in the front and Allen and Chris in the back. Good thing we had those life perservers or Chris may not have been brave enough to stand up and be in the picture.

Back at the resort, Chris and Amanda took a romantic stroll around the grounds where there were bridges, turtles, and dragonflies.

After running as fast as we could, we arrived at a breakfast that Amanda's Aunt Sandy provided tickets for on the fourth of July. Chris thought he'd be cute and help and Amanda cool off some. We had pancakes, orange juice, ham and bananas.

Later on the fourth of July, we headed off to a Morse family reunion at one of the many Timpanogos parks near Sundance. Amanda couldn't help taking a picture of this old couple riding on a dangerous vehicle on University Ave. Since her mom has always told her that she wanted to ride a motorcycle this picture is dedicated to her.

Here are some lovely ladies at the Morse family reunion at the caterpillar campsite. Michelle got dead caterpillar juice on her shorts and everyone else was occupied with taking caterpillars off each others' backs.
