St Louis - Day 9

We had a nice, relaxing day yesterday. Dad, Jillian and Grandpa washed the car. Then we went for frozen custard and concretes and a tailgate party at Ted Drewes! Followed by biking and playing back at Drew and Michael's house. Only one more day left, then we fly home Sunday. We will make the most of it.

St Louis - Day 8 (Part 3)

Jillian had an early birthday party tonight! Complete with balloons, cake, glow sticks, and of course, presents. She was super excited. Life back home is going to seem really boring next week.

The afternoon was filled with a trip to The Magic House (after much squealing and convincing from Jillian). But the real fun of the day...? See Part 3, next.

St Louis - Day 8 (Part 1)

Jillian was super busy today! The day started with a hair cut from grandma. Then we went outside for a romp in a warm rain, compliments of Gustav.

St Louis - Day 7

The Zoo! Hippos, Giraffes, Gorillas, Pengiuns, oh my. Perfect day too, not too hot.

St Louis - Day 6 BONUS

OK, so I just could not help posting this photo too. She is fascinated with being barefoot and seeing her wet footprints on the walk.

St Louis - Day 6

This afternoon was spent at the Botanical Gardens. Jillian had a lot of fun climbing and exploring. She also had a blast building her own bird nest, complete with eggs. It was a super hot day, but it did not stop her. Tomorrow... the zoo!

St Louis - Day 5

Yesterday morning was spent at the near-by soccer fields watching Adam in the finals. Wahoo, way to go, Adam! Jillian enjoyed sitting on Jenna's lap and reading during the game. Afterwards, we drove back to Grandma and Grandpa's to find the sprinkler on. Perfect for a hot, Alaskan girl after time outside.
