Yay June!




Hey ladies...

First: The Camping. I am going to call and cancel one of the sites since its not looking like we need 2 sites. According to my calculations Scanders, Mandy and I will be there Friday night. Lindsey will visit on Saturday and then S, M, myself and Breanna will camp Saturday night. Correct?

Second: Micaela and I just got back from a trip to St. Louis. We met up with 2 girlfriends in St. Louis and we all witnessed our friend Jess (from Tacoma) get married! We took the train ALL day Thursday...the journey lasted 25 hours...5 hours longer then supposed to. Micaela was great on the train, the only bummer was in order for her to sleep well she took up both our seats and I spent quality time on the floor. But it was well worth it to have a sleeping child. I had a minor melt down when the taxi dropped us off at the wrong hotel at 2am, so we had to get another taxi to a hotel 20 minutes away. Then our hotel key didn't work and when I called the front desk he said we'd have to change rooms, I said, in my best peaceful and Christ-like voice "I will switch to the room right across the hall, but that's it! You come and fix this, I'm not hauling my child and our luggage another step!!!" Classy, right (it was 2:30am by this point and my arms were SO SORE from hauling our crap all over)

We slept, found our friend and saw the St. Louis Zoo..Micaela was excited, but equally scared of every animal. I made the mistake of wearing a dress and she tried to hide under my skirt with every new animal we saw. We saw the arch and other fun city sites. And the trip home was smooth sailing, timing was better and Micaela slept A LOT. Good times!

Now, I've started packing b/c we move in 1 month! AAAHHHHH! Enjoy the crazy picture of my child and nephew from my Dad's retirement party last weekend. Love you all!
