Columbia Visit

At the end of June, 3 of us headed down for a week of Missouri summer fun, while Daddy took a business trip back to Sydney.  We met Nana and Pop in St Louis for an overnight stay with Pop's company.
Our Friday fun began with a train ride at the St Louis zoo,

and it was our first time seeing the seal show.


A candid, "real-life" moment between the happy-happy-joy-joy pictures  : ) 

Nana met us at the Zoo!   (but then lost her car, and thankfully Sam spotted her wandering through Forest Park so we could pick her up and deliver her back to the car - approximately 2 miles away!)

We were in Columbia for my 20 year high school reunion.  Bye Mommy!

Mommy's beautiful, very young friends!

We did lots of swimming!

And got medals for jumping off Honey's diving board.  (Alice without a life jacket this year)

And did some swim-dancing on Nana and Pop's deck!

We baked cupcakes,

read books,


went out to lunch with Pop,

and visited the Budweiser clydesdales breeding farm.




We hung around to practice our new summer skills,

Splashed,

and wrapped it up with post-camp DQ with Lucie and Charlotte.

Hugs until next year!
