St. Louis

We just got back from a lovely trip to St. Louis. We stayed for four days - two days with each set of grandparents. Perfect. Sophie had a major car meltdown on the way home and Emma was crying for Grandma when we finally reached Chicago shortly before 1am Tuesday (which Grandma wasn't clear--I think it was just a plaintive plea for all three of them), but that's all part of travel. We still had a wonderful time, and to top it off, both our Geminis had birthdays over the weekend! How lucky we are to have such loving family in our lives. Thank you Greg, Con, Pat & David for making our visit so special. Here are some pics from the trip:
