Road Trip

This past weekend we packed it up again and headed down to St. Louis to celebrate Lucas's 1st birthday. What made it special (besides it being Lucas's first birthday of course!) was that a bunch of us all headed down there-Venessa's family, Kristin's family, Julie's family, Marina and Corey, and Pam and Ryan. It was so much fun to be able to spend time with everyone together. It was even crazier seeing all the kids, dogs, and adults playing. :) I am lucky to have such a great group of friends, many from waaaaaaayyyyy back in the junior high and high school days. Lisa and her parents were also wonderful hostesses, giving up their homes to all the craziness we brought.

Mia was a superstar traveler, especially on the way home when she was very worn out and tired and slept 2 1/2 of the 4 1/2 hours. She had so much between playing with friends, playing with the dogs, and playing with the balloons at the party-really, who could ask for anything more as a child??? :)

Here are some pictures (actually a lot) from the weekend. As you can see, good times were had by all. Be sure to also check out Lisa, Pam, Venessa, Julie, Marina, and Kristin's blogs, as I am sure they will have more pictures from the weekend up soon (Lisa already does, everyone else, get moving!!! -he, he!)
