St. Louis


Last weekend Chris and I decided that we needed a change of scenery and a trip to the temple. So on Friday as soon as Chris got home from a almost 24 hour work day/night we packed up and headed to St. Louis. We even let Robyn tag along with us :) She was company for me while driving while Chris slept on the back bench of the van. We found a hotel through priceline and ended up at a Marriott for 50 dollars, even better it was just down the street from the Temple. Saturday morning Chris and I woke up early to hit the 7:30 session while Robyn and the kiddos slept in. After we came home Robyn went to do baptisms while we swam in the nice and warm hotel pool. (you know it is a pretty nice hotel when the pool is warm). After checkout we decided to venture out and find the arch. We should have asked for directions but eventually we found it, we just took the scenic route. We had a great time and it really was a much needed mini vacation and much needed Daddy time. Another plus to having Robyn stay with us we actually get pictures of all of us together.

We went to St. Louis when we lived in Iowa and loved it. We also took the senic tour to get to the arch, but it was worth it. Glad you got to have some family time!!!
