Easter Insanity

Uncle D, Aunt Valerie and Fletcher D came for Easter. It rocked. Grandma Bonnie's bunny cake got a coating of coconut which was awesome.

It was even warm enough for the Easter bunny to hide the eggs in the garden. We won't be counting on that in the future.

Fletcher D's terminal cuteness is woefully underrepresented here.

See his blog if you are interested in rotting your teeth out.

St. Louis Other Stops

The gang also went to the zoo where they got a private show from a peacock.

They went to southern Illinois where Jenny showed them how and where to dig for geodes, then went to Pere Marquette State Park where bald eagles nest, ate fried pickles, and generally had HUGE time.

Epic St. Louis Trip

Jules and the kids too a 3 day trip to see our friend and former nanny Jenny and her boyfriend this week. Amazing chicken. They took Amtrak which went better than expected. Apparently, traveling 6 hours is less painful when there are cool big kids around to play with and potty breaks are no problem. On the down side, nobody slept a wink either way.

The City Museum in St. Louis is apparently insanely cool. A HUGE renovated former factory full of crazy cool art projects, a 7 story slide, old airplanes and fire trucks suspended in the air that you can climb through. Oh, and they serve booze. Lots of pics.
