St. Louis trip

It was a very exciting week for our family. Four of us traveled to St. Louis, Missouri for the national convention of the U.S. Jaycees, and to compete on the national level in the Mungenast (Jaycee family of the year) competition.

(Cameron stayed behind with Grandma and Grandpa because he has perfect attendance, and didn't want to lose it!)

The competition consisted of interviews and judging on a book put together from our family activities throughout the year. And we won! Our family was honored with the Andrew and Charlotte Mungenast Memorial Award.

We made the Herald, too. Here is a story about us getting the national award:

While we were in St. Louis, we also had some time to check things out and have a little fun. (Photos to follow....)
