Spring Break

We are home from spring break. It was a wonderful time. We went with great friends of our: The Fullers, and the Krouts. Matthew wanted to go to St. Louis - so we thought, why not?
We had such beautiful weather - God was showing off this week, that is for sure. We had a wonderful time and hopefully made some memories along the way. Here are the hi-lights.....

1. The St. Louis Gateway Arch - unbelievable! I loved it! We went to the top (all of us!!).

2. Riverboad Ride on the Mississippi!

3. St. Louis Zoo - Learned alot about the cycle of life - it must of been mating season at the zoo - so a lot of walking away quickly.

4. St. Louis City Museum - I have not words to describe this place, except - unbelievable. This is a great place for any climbers or just kids that love to roam everywhere.

5. Pappy's Bar-b-que. Voted best restaurant in St. Louis and best Barbque - It was all it says it is!!

6. Ted- Drews Custard - this place is along the historical Route 66 and has been there for over 75 years. It was very good.

7. Got to see Clark's gravesite (of Lewis and Clark)

8. Visited Metropolis, IL (official home of Superman) - this was awesome!

We also visited a cold war bomb shelter in Metropolis. We noticed it was on the side of the building and so... Tricia went inside and asked if we could see it (we are studying the cold war in history) and they let them! School - Check!!

All in all we had a wonderful time! Here are some pictures. Sorry Superman is in my disposable camera.
