The Magic House - St. Louis Children's Museum

Another stop we made on our trip to St. Louis was the Magic House.  The kids really enjoyed it, but Mike and I thought it was a bit overpriced for the activities they offer.  We are still undecided as to whether or not we'll return, but here are some pics of the fun!

 Luke LOVED the water room...he tried to climb into the water a few times, and ended up pretty soaked!

Super Sleuth Joshua!

We had fun, but by the time we left, the place was so crowded you could hardly walk around.  I think we may try to find some other fun activities when we return to St. Louis next year!

St. Louis Zoo

This past weekend we ventured to St. Louis, MO, to visit the zoo.  We had such a wonderful time!

 So EXCITED!

Joshua's (and Momma's!) favorites were the elephants.

The lion didn't want to wake up from his nap to entertain us.

 At the end of the day, we rode the train around the zoo.  Joshua had been talking about it ALL DAY.  We finally got in line and were almost ready to board when the train broke down!  Go figure.  We were able to convince Josh to take a break for some ice cream, and by the time we were done, the train was fixed...hooray!  His day was made.

After 6 hours at the zoo, Daddy & Momma were pooped, but Joshua didn't want to leave.  We had to tell him that the zoo was closing soon so the animals could rest, and he was okay with that!  What a fun day!  We will definitely be back next year!

August!

Just some photos of a fun afternoon outdoors!  So excited for a fun-filled August!
