Meet me in St. Louis....for Fall Break! (Friday)

We woke up, packed up, then said good-bye to the McGhees on Friday morning and headed to Malissa's house where we dropped off our stuff and picked her up.  Last year we fell in love with the City Museum and had promised Brooklynn we would go back again, especially now that Braxton could enjoy much more of the museum (hardly a museum - more like an adventure building!).  We can't say enough about the City Museum and if you are ever in the area it is a great place to visit.  So basically all day Friday we were there only breaking to walk a few blocks to eat at a Mexican restaurant (another perk about the City Museum is that you can enter/exit all day!).  I was bummed that we didn't get more pictures but here are a few of the day.

Zoomed in to see it is really them!

Braxton enjoying his time in the giant ball pit outside

We missed it last year but were able to watch the small, youth produced "circus" this year.  Pretty good!

We had front row seats to the "circus" and we were all captivated by it!

Another thing in the toddler area was a "staircase" but Braxton decided to treat it as a slide.

Like I mentioned before - the pictures don't do it justice!  We did so many other things like go down a 10 story slide and wind our way through star-wars like tunnels.  I wish we would have taken more pictures....

After our long day at the museum we headed back to Aunt Lissa and Uncle Jimmy's house where we relaxed, made some dinner, and roasted marshmellows/made smore's over a campfire.  It was a great time!  Unfortunately we don't have any pictures of this either.  :(  Not even of Brewsky, their huge Great Dane, towering over the kids!
