St. Louis Zoo

We spent about a week in St. Louis for our niece's wedding. We had time to make a couple of fun stops. These are the pics from the St. Louis Zoo and the park the zoo is in. After the zoo, we got lost on our way home, and ended up driving by the baseball stadium, and the arch.



The boys were in the wedding. Tyler and Grant were ushers and Mason was the ring bearer. Turns out they clean up pretty nice. Of course the others in the wedding party looked great too. And we made it through without any problems. Mason did a great job, and stood through the whole wedding, and a few minor 5 year old moments after it was over, and at the end of the reception.



And before we left we made a trip to the City Museum, and then the arch. The city museum is a huge, awesome, jungle gym. They have activities on the 11th story roof, including a ferris wheel. They have four stories indoors to explore, and another 4 stories outside to see. You can keep you kids busy for days in this place, and totally wear them out. And I believe the whole place is made from recycled/found materials from the city of St. Louis. The pictures do not do it justice. If you are ever in St. Louis you have to stop by.



And here is the link to the videos from the city museum.



We had a good time, but we were ready to be home and get some rest.

Spring Football and 5th grade party

Tyler had the spring football game last week. The freshman play the freshman, and he did get to play a good amount of the game.

Today was Grant's 5th grade party. The kids all had a ton of fun!

Mason's 5th Birthday

Mason has been looking forward to his birthday since the first one he attended back in September. He was counting down the days. First he opened presents from his brothers on his actual birthday. Then he had his party following his graduation. It was a busy day.

PreK Graduation

Mason had his PreK graduation this morning. He was so proud of his "ploma." He had practiced his songs for weeks.

Grant's last Field day

Grant had his last field day this year. The kids seemed to have a ton of fun!

Grant and Cooper's birthdays

Grant had our first kids pool party for his birthday. And they even talked me into having a sleep over. Too bad I was sick and my cough medicine knocked me out so I had to miss all of the late night fun. Frank had to take care of the boys himself! Everyone seemed to have a good time.

Then the following day Cooper came over so they could share another pool party day. This pool sure is coming in handy!

Crazy Hair Day

Mason had Crazy Hair day at school. His hair looked just as good when he got home from school that day.
