St. Louis Visit 2013

Calvin and I decided we needed to visit Mary at SLU before she was done with the semester. So we made sure she would be there, and talked to Laura as well. Laura brought her whole family, and Mom and Dad even decided to go visit! We had quite a trip - here are some highlights:

Road trip!
Calvin & Alex were so excited to see each other!
Calvin wanted to sit in the same spots that Mary studies in:-)
There were fountains everywhere!
We saw softball and baseball games going on:
There was a plane on the campus:
The church that Aunt Mary goes to, on campus:
We didn't get one good picture of all three of them, but these are cute anyway!  Those boys are wild!  At one point, they were all running full speed in different directions, waiting for parents to chase them down!
And finally the Zoo!
Every place we went, Calvin had to make sure Grandpa was right there to see the animals with him. Grandpa is Calvin's buddy.

Ever since we got back, Calvin has been asking to go back to the Zoo "tonight".  It was so much fun, but such a long trip! Calvin and I were in the car for probably about 8 hours of the 12 hour day - between driving to St Louis, parking at Forest park, and driving back! It was absolutely worth it to see the smile on his face, all day long, and hear him talk about the fun trip.
