A visit to the 'Lou

Gosh, where do I begin?  I'm not even sure where I left off on this blog and honestly, I'm not sure where the past month has gone but I can say we've had some fun.
A little more than a week ago, we had threats of tornadoes and were forced to the basement twice in one day (5 am and 8 pm).  The morning was a bit blurry because we were woken up to iPhone alerts; we made the most of it that night though when D's sister and brother-in-law came to visit us from Michigan and right after our quick hellos, we went to sit in D's car in our underground parking lot.  What a way to say "Welcome to your Missouri vacation!"

The weekend was a great way for me to rediscover the city I've lived in my entire life.  I forgot how much there is to do in St. Louis and we've already started planning Ash & Kalvin's next trip down to see us to visit all the places we couldn't fit in this time.  We ended up having a fabulous 5 days with them, most of it chronicled on Facebook, but I will include a photo dump for your viewing pleasure....
