We stayed for a couple of days and had so much fun with Grandma and Grandpa. On Grandma's birthday, we all went to the zoo! Amelia LOVED it! She still talks about seeing the tigers and giraffes. The St. Louis Zoo is free but it cost $15 to park! So we all packed into into one car- Grandma volunteered to ride in between the kids on the way there.
It was a hot day- luckily we did get to see most of the animals we were hoping to see
Rockin' her "sun gasses" (the funny way she says sunglasses)
Luke seemed to enjoy all the sights but not the heat- I didn't notice until I uploaded it on my computer how he had his little fist up to his face like "oh man"
We planned it out so we could visit the penguin exhibit towards the end- it's nice and cold in there and give you a chance to cool off from the heat!
I love hippos- Amelia didn't really notice them (look in the back of the picture) because it was afternoon and very hot and they were not moving at all! The fish however were all over the place and Amelia was captivated by them!
last animal to see on our way out- the elephants!
After seeing a group of elephants we kept walking and were surprised to find this just around the corner: a sweet baby elephant
if pictures came with sound- you'd hear squeals of laughter!
probably good thing pictures don't come with sound . . .
Amelia was definitely Grandma's girl for the weekend!
Grandma isn't crazy about this picture- but I just love their big smiles! :)
Amelia sound asleep in the car on the way home- what a fun weekend!
Happy Birthday Grandma! We love you very much and hope our surprise made your birthday special!
