This year for Spring Break we went on our first family vacation since Christopher was born. We went to St. Louis. This was the first time for the kids to fly in an airplane, and that ended up being Emma’s favorite part.
While in St. Louis we visited the Arch the first day, and the City Museum and St. Louis Zoo the second day. The Arch was amazing, but we were totally unprepared for the amount of time we would have to wait to go up into it.
I highly recommend the City Museum for anyone with kids. Emma had a blast. Make sure to keep a close eye on your kids, though. I lost Emma for a brief period of time while there and it was some of the most terrifying moments of my life.
The St. Louis museum was good, but by the time we got there the kids were so exhausted that they were ready to get back to the hotel, so we didn’t end up spending as much time there as we would have liked normally.
We also spent a lot of time at the hotel swimming and resting up.
We had a great time on our St. Louis trip. More pictures from our trip are here. Now we are in Tuttle watching the snow fall and waiting for Connor’s birthday party, and the second part of our Spring Break.
