Trip to STL

We took off right after school got out Friday morning and drove to St. Charles. Friday evening we spent at Jen and Matt's house to "wa wa in Cole, Wall-e" (swim in Cole's pool in Wall-e trunks)



















Aunt Jen and Uncle Matt fed us hot dogs, brats, and cupcakes!





Luke LOVED being able to follow his cousin around and try to be a big boy, just like Cole.



Ben passed out on their living room floor before we could get the boys back to Grandma's for bed.






Saturday was full of tractor riding, putting our feet up to watch cartoons and playing at Stacey's house for Dan and Erin's graduation party.


Luke and Ben did some tractor riding on Sunday as well.
















AND THEN....Luke and I tagged along with Scott and his cousins, Dan and Katie to a CARDINAL GAME! It was Luke's first time at Busch and he loved every second of it. We had the sweetest seats I've ever sat in for a MLB game (third row, ya know, where they still use letters for the rows instead of numbers). Everything was exciting, watching the team warm up, watching the dog catch frisbees on the field, seeing EVERY Cardinal logo as we walked around. Grandma told him to pick out something at the Cardinal store and bring something back for Ben. Luke carefully picked out a bat and ball set for himself and a glove and ball set for Ben. The glove came in very handy as he played shadowball with himself throughout the first 4 innings.



He tried to follow his daddy's example on how to behave at a game even during the national anthem.




Scott and I both enjoyed watching Luke's sense of wonder throughout the afternoon and even though the Cardinals lost (to the Rockies ={ ) Luke gave the whole experience two thumbs up.
