A Staycation of Sorts

Our preschooler will be off to kindergarten next year and, with that in mind, Dennis took a couple of days off this month so that we could visit some local attractions before schools were out and places got too busy.

First stop, the City Museum! If anyone is ever in the St. Louis metro area, this place is by far my favorite museum of any that I have ever been to. Everything in the place is repurposed or recycled. It's fun for kids but it's an adult museum. They are even open VERY late on weekends and have a bar. Danny absolutely LOVED the ball pit and Cameron was a big fan of all of the tunnels throughout the museum!







Next stop, a day for Cameron alone with Mommy and Daddy at Six Flags. It never even occurred to me that Cameron might be tall enough for some of the roller coasters but he was and he loved every minute of it!




Now, can you see how this ride not only spins but it also goes UPSIDE down? Guess who road it twice and had to be talked out of going a third time?





Congratulations to our preschool graduate! I'm not sure what you actually have to do to earn a preschool diploma but Cameron got one . . .



Our staycation is over but how can you not smile when your day starts with this?
