We have been vacationing- Double time!!

I know you all look for a new post each day on this famous blog and have been concerned where we were- Right???
Anyways, we have been on Spring break!!! And did we have a busy one and a fun time. We left last Saturday for St. Louis to spend the week with grampie and mimi. We arrrived by airplane, thanks to them, it is so easy to fly vs driving!! So in one hour we were St. Louis bound!!!
We did so many fun and interesting attractions in the city. I have been numerous times to St.Louis and each time we do different things. We went to the park, they have the most faboulous parks, the butterfly house, the whittle train station and the magic house. It was so fun to do attractions that were centered around the kids. Now I have all kinds of ideas for opening up a business here in Birmingham for kids!!! You just wait- it will happen someday!
And then we had to end our wonderful visit on Thursday. We headed to the airport and said our goodbyes only to find out that our plane was not there and we were getting to stay two more nights!!! So I called Mimi and we started our second vacation!!! We went to Purina farms- Parkers most talked about attraction, I am sure you know why-tractors and "ickens"!!. We played all week at granpie's and mimi's and rode bikes and hunted eggs. Mimi is the best host because she has some of the best toys and all the needed baby gear to make our stay very easy and comfortable! She also does some of the funnest things with the kids like teach Parker to cut paper, teach Gigi to stack blocks and kick a ball, dye easter eggs, and sit in the floor and play with them!! Granpie was gone part of the week, but every chance he got he was also in the floor making Parker laugh hysterically, teaching Parker to play golf, and stealing sugar from Gigi!!
Meg and Greer were coming in on Friday and so we got to visit with them and their dogs! Gigi is still saying dog! We had not seen them since Gigi's birthday in October and they sure thought the kids had changed.
We got a plane home on Saturday nite and even though we were sad to leave because we had had such a great time, we were so excited to see Dada! Thanks to granpie and mimi for such a fantastic time and memories we will always remember!! I have ALOT of pictures, so these are just a few!!
