St Louis

Went to St Louis with the Hoopes family for spring break- it felt more like winter though! At least we got to go swimming in a warm hotel!
Poor Boyce had a bad fall and busted his lip the first day- nothing that the ipad can't heal though ;)





Looking out the window on top of the arch

The view of the courthouse from the top of the arch



The kids rode this train at least 10 times- they loved it!


Climbing in the City Museum- there was so much to explore there!

Snow Days

We didn't go anywhere for a few days- good thing school was cancelled!


Cleaning off the cars



Gavin's bike was how we measured the snow throughout the week- this was the last day of the snow.

Playing computer games- Gavin is more excited than he looks



The trees were so beautiful

This is how we shovel snow in Kansas City

I think these snow piles will be here for a while

Hot Chocolate!!

We almost lost Gavin to the snow


We had 2 really bad snow days, had the weekend to shovel, and then got hit again with snow on Monday! It was so much fun to play in the snow and to have Chris home- 3 snow days for him! We had lots of time for hide-n-seek, making tents, baking, dancing, and hot chocolate!
