A St. Louis Excursion

Here's a visual snapshot of a weekend excursion our family took in March to St. Louis, MO. We had a blast! Several of these moments could certainly be classified as orderly chaos! Enjoy!

We went to the City Museum in St. Louis. I must say that this place was AWESOME! We had so much fun there. I would definitely recommend adding it to your must do list if you have kids.

Here's my crew. My oh my! They sure are wacky but I love them like Crazy! The four kids in the front row are (left to right) My son Tyler, My daughter Serenity, and my nephews, Aiden and Conner. On the back row (left to right) My dad Steve, My mom Charlotte, My husband Terry, ME, My brother Jesse, My sister-in-law, Andrea, and Andrea's mom, Pat.

Here's my brother, Jesse, exemplifying chaos at it's finest! He's getting ready to crawl into one of the many tunnels at the museum. I secretly think the dads had as much fun as the kids. 

Remember what I said about the dads having as much fun as the kids? Here's my hubby, Terry, inside of a giant egg. Does this mean that I can call him an "egg head" and get away with it? Ha!

Here's my dad getting his hand "eaten" by a lion statue. His grandkids really got a kick out of it. Can you tell that wacky runs in my family? Yes, unfortunately, I inherited too.

Here's Serenity, following in her Granddad's footsteps. She had to one up him and get her head "eaten" by a lion statue. It seems that wacky was passed down to her too.

Here's my husband, Terry, with our daughter, Serenity. He's such an awesome dad! Can you tell Serenity loves her Daddy? 

Here's my hubby with our son, Tyler. The two of them were getting ready to crawl into another one of the many holes there at the museum.

Here's a picture of all four of the kids. Of all the pictures I took, I think this is the only one I managed to get of all four of them together at the same time. The little rascals were bouncing around like ping pong balls from one place to the next. It was virtually impossible to get them to slow down long enough to get an occasional shot.

These are the lights of my life. My son, Tyler and my daughter, Serenity. Man, I love these kids! This is a picture of them in the very top of the St. Louis Arch.

Last, but certainly not least, MY FAMILY! My son Tyler, my daughter Serenity, and my husband Terry. These three people are the greatest joys in my life. They are my daily reminders that even though there are hardships and darkness in this world, it is also full of beauty and joy. I love you guys!
