St. Louis

We spent our last days of Memorial Day Weekend in St. Louis. We kept promising the boys we would stay sometime and go up in the Arch. We drove up from Springfield on Sunday and went to a Cardinal's game. We got really cheap tickets, that's all they had left (standing room only) but it poured rain for a while an 100's of people left, so after they started the game again, we just moseyed our way into some seats :)

The boys had a great time. There was all sorts of stuff for them to do, cause you know they don't want to sit there forever and watch the whole baseball game!

I took the picture above from where the boys are standing in the picture below. As you can tell, it's a little high off the ground, and I was a little shakey sticking my hand out there to take the picture...and you want me to go up in that arch, that if you look in the far distance of this picture, you'll see the top of it!

I love this picture.

Hi!This is the boys doing their Rocky impersonation :)
Here they are looking at those view finder things. Here they are with Grandma :)
They weren't so much in to learning all this history stuff...especiall this guy that moved and talked, it was kinda creepy.
We're so excited to go up in the Arch!!
Can you see how small that door is behind them? This is where we get on to ride to the top..."Lord, please don't let this be the day that this thing breaks down..."
Hi, can you say TINY?! And can you breathe in there?! We made it!!!
