St. Louis Family Vacation

So, it’s December…. and really almost 2015. Seems like a good time to finally post pictures from our July vacation, right? Ha! Story of my life! Really though, I’m still ahead of the game, considering I posted pictures from our 2013 vacation this last February.

This last summer, we did another relatively close-by vacation – St. Louis! It’s just a quick trip to the other side of Missouri, and we hadn’t taken the kids there yet. We knew they’d love the famous Arch and the zoo, and we found another gem this time around – The Magic House!

If you’re planning a family trip to St. Louis, and have younger kids, The Magic House needs to be on your “must-do” list! We spent most of a day there, ate at their tasty little picnic restaurant, lost a kid, re-found the kid after our names were called over the PA, cried when I hugged the lost kid, had crazy, static charged hair, watched lots of climbing, and all for a sweet discount thanks to a Groupon!

The look on Lily’s face kills me here! I think she was nervous we’d crammed all 6 of us in the little pod to take us to the top of the Arch.

And once again, Lily looks highly unimpressed…

The spy room slide at The Magic House was a hit with her though!
