Opening Day 2010

Brent and I were fortunate to celebrate Opening Day in St. Louis last week. It was a quick trip and started a little late, but we made it. So of course, since as long as I can remember, the epitome of St. Louis is prancing in the picture above. My heart flutters every time I see these guys in person. If I had the money, I'd be more than happy to shell out for their appearance. I just hope August isn't rolling over...

A Visit from Florida

We eagerly awaited Erica's arrival from Florida. Our visit went entirely too fast. We spent one afternoon at the Rothwell Park in Moberly. It was a hot springy day. Looking back on these pictures which were taken just after Easter, the dull trees are now filled with greenery. It's amazing how fast nature flourishes. Timmy is a perfect example of that...he celebrated his 2nd big birthday the very next weekend.

Looking for Easter Eggs

I took this sweet picture of my niece Candace while she was searching for eggs.

Fun Day at the Park

Isn't it funny how I take an awesome picture and some unknown kid always shows up? It happened to me in Olde St. Charles when I had to ask a kid to get out of a pic with my cousin Emily. Yesterday it happened when I tried to get a pic of my stepdaughter Erica and grandson Timmy. She slid down a long curvy slide with him having such a good time. The unknown kid behind them must've jumped on board as soon as they took off. But what a great pic!!
