Celebrating An American Holiday with Baseball and Paratroopers

Having July 4th holiday in the middle of the week makes it a strange celebration. I celebrated with friends and family in Memphis this weekend, but came back to St Louis for work.

Top 3 Family Adventures in St Louis

Last week, my niece Georgia and her son Jake came to visit during a few days of his spring break. I’ve been looking forward to it for months!

An Awesome Day at Forest Park Boathouse & Paddleboating

I just had to share more photos from my day off with my sister Cheryl & our friend Cathy. I’m sharing these as much as anything so I can come back to them on crummy days and remind myself how incredible a single day can be.
