squeezing in a couple of pictures

Oh dee doh dee doh.  My poor blog.  I HAVE to pick back up on it.  I've missed it.  It is also such a great record-keeping tool.  I am going to attempt a blog post here.  

These pictures are from September and October from our nice camera.  Who knows what's on our other camera...



Grandpa wearing the monkey costume hat, it's suiting!


Missouri Botanical Gardens.  (Japanese Garden here)

click on larger to see how tiny this little garden is.

little tower in Henry Shaw's Botanical Garden.  Tower Grove?

overlooking a maze (picture taken from tower above)

Museum of Transportation.  This was an old snowplow engine.  They stopped using it due to cattle getting in the way and .... well... yikes!


Inside Henry Shaw's historic house.  

Balloon Glow!!!




watching fireworks!!!

Amelia's ballet class.  

The kids took soccer.  It was AWESOME.  Indoor.  Cheap.  Family friendly.  And the best part, it is RIGHT outside our neighborhood (a 4 minute drive!)



Halloween.

Getting dad ready for church.
