Krysta moves back to Florida

Krysta is back in the Sunshine State... ready to start her second year of college. I drove down with her to help her get moved back into the dorms and see some friends and family while I was there. Krysta stayed busy this summer working and taking a couple of online courses and was very ready to get back to get into her school routine. She will be taking 19 hours this semester. GOOD LUCK Krysta!

Happy 15th to Natalie!!

What a difference a year makes!! Last year, we had just moved to STL, and Natalie's birthday fell on her first day of high school, in a new town. Needless to say, many tears were shed that day and it truly was the worst birthday my Natalie has had. But, things were much better this year. Although, once again, her first day of school fell on her actual birthday (Aug. 12), no tears were shed and I would have to say overall, this birthday was much better. We are so proud of Natalie and the sweet, funny, crazy, young lady she is turning into. We love you... Happy Birthday!

Friends come to town

This past weekend Maggie's best friend LeeAnn from Cincinnati, and her sister Hannah came for a quick visit to STL. Their mom Kim and Nana Sheila got to tag along also. :) We went to The Muny on Friday night to see the play Hairspray and then went to see the Arch on Saturday. The girls had a fun time being together and it was nice for them to make the drive this way to see us.
