St. Louis Trip-Fourth of July

At the fireworks show

St. Louis Arch



Meeting Yogi Bear
Roasting marshmallows for smores
Todd trying to show Connor how to play miniature golf
Too bad he would rather climb on animals and run around
Watching the seal lion show
Riding the train at the zoo
St. Louis Zoo
So, Mamaw & Papaw took us to St. Louis for the weekend! Derrick had a family reunion at his aunt's house there so we went to that and did some other things around St. Louis. We stayed at Jellystone Park so we went swimming, played miniature golf, played in the arcade, had a small campfire and made smores, woke Yogi up from his cave and met him. We TRIED to ride the train that goes around the campground but people were RUTHLESS w/ this thing. People literally jumped in front of others to get on the train-it was quite ridiculuous so even though the boys were disappointed not to ride, we skipped it b/c I was just not going to stoop to the level of pushing and shoving......We also went to the St. Louis zoo while we were there, saw fireworks in the town of Eureka (the rain stopped for a few hours and they barely got he fireworks in , but they did!) and went up into the St. Louis Arch (well, Taylor & Todd did) and walked around by the river and had lunch in downtown St. Louis. It was a fun time-thanks Mamaw & Papaw (mom & Derrick). Oh, and to NO ONE's SURPRISE, Connor BROKE something at Derrick's aunts house. And I didn't post about his little antics last week where he flooded Mamaw & Papaw's bathroom and locked himself in my car in a matter of 20 minutes. :)
