Weekend in Pictures: St. Louis

The boys and I made a trip back to St. Louis for Scout's 30-day post operation follow-up and decided we would make a fun weekend out of it to celebrate Sawyer's birthday.
We jammed packed our two days there and Sawyer even said it was the most fun weekend EVER! He was obsessed with the view from our hotel room, Busch Stadium!

First stop was the doctor's appointment, which I am happy to report went great. He got a clean bill of health and a full release with no restrictions!

Then we headed to Ikea, the Turtle Park (it was 75 degrees out!), a trip up to the 360 bar/restaurant at our hotel for view of the city, and finished the night with dinner at Llywelyn's Pub in Soulard with my family to celebrate my cousin's engagement.

Saturday we got up early had breakfast at one of my new favorites, Snarf's, and went to the City Museum. We could have spent all day there but needed to head home so finished off the weekend with lunch at Kirkwood Station Brewery.

Here are some of the picture, check them all our here: https://karitravels.shutterfly.com/4512

Trina's St. Louis Birthday Celebration

Trina is one year older and we couldn't let this day pass without honoring our best friend. The Birthday Girl, Time, Megan, John and I headed to St. Louis for a couple days of fun*. We met up with our friends Stephanie and Eric who live in STL. We caught a Cardinals game Thursday evening and then went out after to Paddy-O's (John got his dance on, see amazing video below). Friday, we visited the City Museum. This place is amazing, I highly recommend it. It is basically a big play ground for kids or adults. Huge slides, tunnels, caves and even a ball pit. Pictures do not do it justice. Happy Birthday Trina, hope you had a wonderful time. We love you!
* props to my parents for keeping Sawyer for us!!
