Friends and Family

The last weekend/week of July we did some more traveling. First, we traveled to see Justin's bestfriend from Kindergarten and his family. Chris, Justin and I went to school together since the 5th grade. It was a great visit. Very surreal since Nick (14 y/o) is very similar looking and acting as Chris was at the same age.

The boys did a lot of video game playing and it was just like old times. The kids really loved being with Chris, Shonna, and Nick for the weekend. We had a great time with old friends.



Next we traveled to IL to visit with Justin's family. The weather better than to be expected for Southern IL in late July. We took the time to go to the Cardinals game in St. Louis while we were in town. We had not been to the new stadium since it was built 3 years ago.

On the way over, Miles really enjoyed watching Tom and Jerry. I wish you could hear the laughter that goes along with the smiles.

We arrived at the ballpark a little early so we took the time to get some pictures.

Uncle Jordan and Tracy joined us in seeing the ballgame. We all had a really great time.

The kids loved riding the metrolink over the river to the ballgame and back. It was a long night, getting home at 1:00 a.m., but it was well worth it!
