St. Louis

This past week was Ty's spring break so we took a little trip down to St. Louis with our friends the Miner's. Here we are at the arch!
Saylor loved playing in the Mississippi River
The weather was so seriously beautiful. We packed a little picnic lunch and ate on the grass right under the arch overlooking the Mississippi River, what a view!
Me and my Girls

The kids did awesome in their strollers
We ran into our friend's The Cranney's while we were there, we were staying at the same hotel and didn't even know! We hung out at the free science museum together.

Nice smile Say!

Ty and Saylor flying an airplane
Playing with Andrew, Saylor was so excited to see him!
This was actually one of my favorite parts of the museum. They had a glass walkway that went right over the freeway.
Checking out the cars through the floor
This was my other favorite part...The T-Rex!
It's been 80 degree weather all week in Missouri and we've been soaking it up. We of coarse had to hit up the zoo. It was strange going from being in Chicago a couple weeks ago and it being so freezing to going to St. Louis and it being total summer weather. I definitely prefer wearing shorts and flip flops to bundling up in pants and coats!

Oaks just being cute in her stroller

We love the penguin house! You can get so close up so my goal this time was to try and touch one. I sure did but I also got yelled at by the zoo worker that popped up out of nowhere. Oh well, it was worth it.

We also met up with our friends, the Howards at the zoo
Saylor and Kellen walked around the whole zoo holding hands, it was super cute!
We had a great time! We also got to do some shopping and eat at OG, yummy!
