After we got done with the tour, we headed to Grant's Farm. It, of course, was a very hot day and we were going to a smelly farm, but Colin really enjoyed it, so it was worth the sweat! We saw lots of animals and rode on the train around the grounds of the farm. We saw the Clydesadeles (however you spell it) both at the brewery and the farm. Colin was amazed at how big they were! He actually got really close to one and thought it was really neat to be able to pet them. I think we all thought that too! :)
After Grant's farm, we headed to the hotel. On Saturday night, we stayed at Union Station. We played around there for awhile, rode the paddle boats (yes, I am wearing a skirt, didn't plan to drive the paddle boats - real nice, I know!), walked around the mall and fed the fish in the little lake. We then went to dinner at the Old Spaghetti Factory. Really good food! :) We then headed back to the hotel and got the boys ready for bed. My parents were nice enough to watch the boys so us big kids could go out for the evening. We met Wade and Karen (Steve's cousin and his wife) out. They live right downtown St. Louis. It was nice seeing them while having fun with Brad, Sarah, and Chris.

Paddle boats and dinner fun.
All in all, great trip. It is always fun to hang with the family! The next morning, we went to the St. Louis zoo. I'll post those later.

Looks like so much fun! I love seeing pictures of your brothers and parents too. You guys are all so cute. It's so funny that I lived an hour from St. Louis for so many years and hardly took advantage of any of that fun. Guess I"ll need to take advantage of all of that next time I visit my fam! :) Hope you are enjoying the new school year and new students! :)
