And you must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your strength. And you must commit yourselves wholeheartedly to these commands that I am giving you today. Repeat them again and again to your children. Talk about them when you are at home and when you are on the road, when you are going to bed and when you are getting up. Tie them to your hands and wear them on your forehead as reminders. Write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates.
Deuteronomy 6:5-9

St. Louis Fun


We had a great time on our short but much needed vacation. We stayed in St. Charles with my Uncle Darrell and Aunt Stephanie (thanks! saved us a ton on cash-ola!!). We visited Grants Farm, the zoo, the omnimax at the Science Center, and The Magic House. We also did some other little things in between. We really did a lot for 2 1/2 days. We wanted to see the whole zoo again, but it was too darn HOT! Only got maybe halfway through until we decided to call it quits. We left mid-afternoon to keep from melting away. Despite the heat we had fun.


In the children's park at the zoo there was water fountain things that shot out of the ground for the kids to play in. Livy loved getting wet! Thank goodness, because it was hot!


Also during vacation we celebrated Father's Day. We went to Lewis and Clarks to eat Sunday night. It's down by the Missouri river walk in downtalk St. Charles.

Happy Father's Day to a super Daddy! We love you John!

John works 3 days this week and 3 days next week. YAY! John will have another mini vaca next week too over the holiday weekend. I love short work weeks!!
