St. Louis Science Museum

On our last stretch of driving home from Ohio we decided to stop in St. Louis at one of the boys' very places- The Science Center. Once again it was a big hit and nice break for all of us during our long drive home from buying our Armada.

The museum has an observation bridge that goes over a road. Along the way they have glass openings where you can watch cars drive underneath you.

Ohio Trip

So about a month ago as family we traveled to Ohio to pick up our new Armada that we had bought through Ebay. We drove straight through on our way, but decided to take it slower on the way home and ended up stopping at one of best children's museums in Cincinnati. The boys loved it, especially the tree house play area. One other activity they enjoyed was building their very own rocket and then knocking it down!!!









Preschool Field trip to the Zoo

As their final field trip together, Eli's preschool class went to the Independence Zoo. I was lucky enough to have the day off from work, so I got to join in on the fun too. Below are some pictures (in reverse order) of a few of the memorable experiences. Eli was a very sweet brother and wanted Avery to come along, so he got to enjoy the zoo too.

Crown Center Trip

On one of my days off in February I decided to take the boys to Union Station & Crown Center for the day. Here are a few pictures of all the fun things we did there.
