Visitors

 My mom and dad came out for a visit and we did some touring around St. Louis.  They bought us a membership to this kid museum called the Magic House.  It is so perfect for kids!  We've been going almost weekly.

 This giant vacuum thing was the kids favorite part.

 Eugene holds onto your ears when he rides piggy back.

 We also went up inside the arch.  It was kind of cramped up there, but it has a great view.  The Lewis and Clark museum underneath the arch was really neat too.  We watched a film about their journey.  Did you know that Sacajawea was 16 years old and pregnant when she left to guide their group and that she not only gave birth on the way, but also carried the kid the entire way to California and back.  I think I'll stop complaining about my life now.

 The view, from both sides.  That's the Mississippi River in picture above, and you can see the Cardinals stadium in the picture below.

Jake flew in to Scott Air Force Base and gave us a tour of his little trainer airplane that he flies and teaches in.  Then, me and Jake went to a Cardinals baseball game.  We got rained out, unfortunately, at the end.  

 The kids loved the airplane!  They thought it was so cool.

 Ryley even got dressed up in the G-suit.
