Last Saturday we headed to Rombach’s Pumpkin Patch. It was a beautiful fall day, so we bundled the kiddies up in their Halloween attire and got ready for many photo ops (because that’s really why we go to the pumpkin patch every year, isn’t it??). Here’s Molly, all gussied up and ready to go:
And then [...]

Not too long ago, the kids and I headed to Eckert’s in Belleville, IL for some peach picking with some friends. My friend, Emmie, offered to let us ride with her in her big-enough-for-four-car-seats SUV. It was WAY more fun this way…especially considering it takes almost an hour to get there. Between us, we have [...]

This is what we’ve been hearing out of Owen’s mouth ever since Travis’s cousin, Don, came to visit last weekend. Owen now considers Don his best friend, due largely to the fact that Don played Star Wars with Owen for hours AND bought Owen several new Star Wars action figures. Don will forever be the [...]

Today the weather was perfect so we headed to the Missouri Botanical Gardens. For those that don’t live in St. Louis or have never been, it’s really very beautiful. Right now the tulips are gorgeous. Tulips just so happen to be my favorite flower so I loved seeing the beautiful flowers…and taking pictures of my [...]

The weather has been absolutely gorgeous in St. Louis for the past couple of days. Now that we’re healthy again, Owen and I have been taking full advantage of being outdoors!
Thursday afternoon we played outside for 2 hours with Rowan and Savannah. They showed Owen the fun of sidewalk chalk.
Can you tell by the look [...]

If you aren’t from St. Louis and aren’t familiar with the Magic House, it’s a great children’s museum. The only down side to the Magic House is that it’s always very crowded and claustrophobic feeling. (If you’re like me and really hate the feeling of being trapped in places and not able to [...]

Yes, that’s right folks! The St. Louis Zoo actually has a lot to offer around Christmas time. Last night we took advantage of Wild Lights at the Zoo. Here are some pictures that give you an idea of the winter wonderland we walked through last night:
Owen has loved looking at all the [...]

Last Saturday, Travis and I took Owen to the pumpkin patch. This is becoming something we look forward to every year…although this year we chose a different patch. Last year we went to Eckerts…which is a great place to go, just a wee bit far away (over an hour from our house). We thought it [...]

I feel like all I do on this blog is tell about what cast is getting put on and taken off and what kind of remedies the doctors have for Owen’s constant snottiness. I’m in the mood for something a little lighter and happier. I’m going to take you back a week and show some [...]

Last weekend, Jeff and Julie (Travis’ parents) came in town for a visit. Besides the obvious reason for the visit (Owen), they went to the Tom Petty concert on Thursday night. I have nothing to say about this concert considering I did not attend. If you read this post, you should not be surprised at [...]
