Boppin Round Town

I love when we get company that likes to get out and do the touristy stuff!  My college roommate came into town for a few days, and even though the snow prevented her and her family from getting here on Sunday, we still made the most of our time on Monday.  We decided to go to the Magic House since her 4 kids would all have fun there.  I'm becoming quite the regular there, going 3 times in the past 3 months but it's always fun and there is so much to do and see.  The Magic House, for those who dont know, is the St. Louis Children's Museum.  It's hands on and huge.  Eliseo always has fun because I "wear" him so he gets to see it all.  This time, his favorite was a huge computer that he could draw on the screen using his hands.....CRACKED UP!!! As always, we had a lot of fun.

Tuesday, we went to Meramac Caverns.  Glenn was off Monday and Tuesday and he was rested up so we went as a family.  It's pretty amazing, you just walk into a building, and next thing you know, you're in a huge cave.  Glenn carried the little man through the whole tour and I couldn't help but keep an eye on his face, which was just looking around in wonder.  There is a part of the tour where they do a little light show and watching him watch that was so cute.  On the way home, we stopped at a winery and had a little tasting and split a case of wine with our friends, so we can finally fill our wine rack!  It's never full, I like wine too much. 

Shannon and her family left this morning, but I'm so happy that they chose to come visit us on their spring break.  They could have gone anywhere and they came here.  We had a great time!
