Our Most Recent Adventure


Day 1: We left around 10:30 and headed up to the St. Louis Zoo. Wes thought the Hippo tank was great, but it took him a little while to warm up to it. After we left the zoo we went to Sonic to get a drink (walking around the zoo is TIRING) and then drove about 30 minutes past Saint Louis and stayed the night.



Day 2: We woke up early and headed to Pittsburgh. We pulled into town just in time to find a parking place and head to PNC Park to watch the St. Louis Cardinals take on the Pittsburgh Pirates. The game was exciting with the Cardinals coming out on top :) Our seats were great, and Wes had a blast with his Grandpa, Grandma, Uncle Rick, Laura, Ryan, Joe, and Mike (he doesn't like being around us so much).

Day 3: We wore ourselves out walking around Pittsburgh. There was also a college football game that day so there were people EVERYWHERE. The City is beautiful with a lot of bridges crossing the river, and a nice riverwalk that goes right alongside it.
Day 3 Continued: We were able to go to another Game with the Cardinals winning again :) After the game there were fireworks which were AWESOME. Once again Wes spent his time as far away from us as he could get.
Day 4: We got back in the car and drove up to Cooperstown, NY to the National Baseball Hall of Fame. The town was little and had lots of little shops filled with baseball memorabilia. Todd, obviously was excited to be there.
Day 5: By day 5 I was pretty sick of baseball so I hung out with Wes outside while Todd continued to look around Cooperstown. Wes was practicing his "jumping" outside off of the curb and then would run up and then back down the sidewalk and "jump" again. (he needs a lot more practice). This particular time he ran to the end and posed just like this and said "cheese, mommy, cheese" Of course I had to open up my camera and snap this shot...that silly boy.

We were also able to drive home through Kirtland, Oh and drive by the Temple and visitors center. It was getting late so we didn't have time to tour or anything but it was still nice to see.

Day 6: We drove home...Hooray!

I have A LOT more pictures to post, but I'll post them on my blog.
