St. Louis

We had a wonderful weekend in St. Louis. On Saturday we took the kids swimming and then went to the City Museum. The kids played hard for 4 hours before we headed to the hotel to rest. The City Museum was huge and was essentially one big playground made of everything you can think of. They had caves to climb inside, tunnels, barrels, etc. Some places were so narrow I had trouble fitting through. That night we went to the Monster Trucks with our friends Chris, Sharon, and Alex. The kids are still talking about the trucks, which was their favorites, why they kept breaking down, and rolling over. On Sunday we went into the arch. The kids were asking to do this since we arrived. They could see the arch from our hotel room. The kids were sufficiently wore our from the weekend, they put on the miles. Today Valynn and Mason are off from school, unfortunately Mark still has class. The first 5 pictures are from the City Museum. The Dog Monster Truck was Valynn's favorite, Mason liked the Bat Man Monster Truck. The picture of Kyra in front of the teepee is from the arch. She saw some tourists taking their picture there and decided she wanted hers taken as well. The other pictures are taken in the top of the arch, you can see how small of a space it is. The last picture is of our hotel, we stayed in the shorter circular hotel on the left, the two towers are connected. Behind the hotel you can see Busch stadium.
