On our way to Lincoln, NE we passed through St. Louis, MO and got a beautiful view of the skyline and the Gateway Arch. Sadly, we didn't have enough time to stop and ride the arch or check out the city of St. Louis, but we were able to get this beautiful photo. We'll just have to add the Gateway Arch to our next bucket list of road trip adventures.
Rebekah had a harder time traveling to NE, but I think it's because she was (and still is) teething like crazy. She has her four canine teeth coming in and I also think her two year old molars are starting to come through. Poor bambina. She still had lots of fun playing with her baby doll and blankie.
We drove for about 3-4 hours before pulling off for gas, and we ran across this lovely little shop!
There were so many toys Rebekah didn't know what to do. She kept grabbing one off of the shelf, giving it cuddles and then moved onto a new toy. We bought her this cute little horse that she absolutely adores.
The store also had a section set aside specifically for hillbilly and redneck items. We found this awesome hair brush for Andrew's dad while looking through these sweet gadgets.
The store even had a decent selection of Disney knick knacks, ornaments and other figurines. If only we had more time to look around! We went outside to make lunch before heading back on the road, but Rebekah went to the bathroom so I had to go back inside and change her. I felt bad because the bathroom was on the second floor (we didn't check it out at all and I didn't have my phone at the moment) anyways they had the coolest cow section upstairs and I wish Andrew could have seen it, but we needed to get on the road so we could make it to our hotel at a decent time.
Rebekah loved having her horse to play with as we continued our journey to NE.
There wasn't much excitement as we drove through Iowa. The scenery was mostly flat plains or fields full of corn, but we were able to see a epic Lion King sunset.
