Off again

and we are off again. On another vacation, this one will not be taking us to the beach. However, we will get to see old friends (from kindergarten) and family.

We are really excited to take the kids to see the St. Louis Cardinals next week at Busch Stadium. We have not actually been to the new Busch Stadium, but my last big memory from the new Busch Stadium is that the Cards won the world series in 2006. We were sitting in the hospital room, Miles still on the ventilator and Justin and Miles watched their 1st baseball games together. It was very bitter sweet for the Cards to win the world series and I will always remember where I was when that happened. Our great friends Kevin and Margie bought Justin a picture from that game and it hangs above Miles' bed. Each night I lay in that bed and read to Miles, looking up and the picture and being reminded of all that he (and we -including family and friends) went through.

I am so excited to make some new memories from Busch Stadium. 8 of us will be heading over together and the weather should be great-- only about 80 for the high. Very unusual for late July in St. Louis.

I will also remember the 06 World series and think of Justin watching it with Miles. Have a wonderful trip!
