quick trip
Brian's sister Kim finished up her Bachelor of Social Work degree this Spring and we dashed off Friday to St. Louis for her graduation party. It was more of a family reunion of sorts- with a large turnout from both sides of Brian's family. Such a busy, busy, fun weekend. And congrats, Kim! (I think in all the commotion I forgot to tell you.)
We rushed home Sunday, leaving one kid behind in St. Louis, stopping only briefly for a leg stretching walkabout at a Missouri vineyard. Maw Maw and Da (Brian's parents) will return our boy tomorrow when the St. Louis clan comes here for the annual Royals vs. Cardinals extravaganza. I'm sure he'll be full of custard and will have watched plenty of trains go by. Lucky boy. Family is good.

I love this post ... it gave me such a wonderful fuzzy feeling. Is that weird? I love summer. Oh my gosh, do I ever.

I've always meant to stop at a Missouri vineyard, but I never get farther than the one in Weston!
Sounds like a fun (busy) weekend!

Went to Wash U for Grad school. Now, I'm a zombie slave to Ted Drewe's!
