SE MO / St. Louis trip :)

There are so many pictures from this trip that I want to put on here but I know I won't put half of the ones I want to share! lol We had the best time this year. We were gone 10 days and normally after that much time away I am itching to come home, but we all had such a good time this year that I wasn't 100% ready to leave. But it does feel great to be home!! The first half of the trip was spent with my grandparents - I love them so much but unfortunately we are only able to visit once a year. But I'm hoping we'll start making more trips than that soon. We all really enjoy our time spent with them!

In the car on our way out of town - don't they look ready to drive 740 miles??? lol

I think someone just figured out that this isn't a trip to the store ;)

Finally there - sitting on his Great-Grandfather's lap.

We have a picture of all the kids sitting in this tree over the years. My parents have a picture of me in it when I was Cole's age. I'll have to find it and scan it so I can put all 4 pics up. This tree is way older than me!

He stole this ice cream from his daddy and made a HUGE mess!

His first boo boo :( And how often do you do see movie marquees like this anymore?? lol And the movie was only $4 for each of us - holy cow!

Cole thought this riding lawn mower was the coolest thing ever - he wanted to ride and ride and ride. The last picture is my grandparents and my uncle the day we were leaving :(
