Grant's Farm

One of my favorite places in St. Louis is Grant's Farm. I love to see the elephants, camels, old stables and architecture. We were able to take Tim & Shelly's kids (Austin and McKenzie) there a couple of weekends ago, and had a great time. I'm sure I enjoyed it even more than they did!!




This stroller was a great find!






Aren't they cute??

Home, Home on the Range

I'm at Mom and David's this weekend, and am totally relaxing and enjoying myself. I so needed a break from work, and this just takes the cake!! We went on a trail ride today in Gilbert, AR. It was so nice, the weather was absolutely perfect, and the food at the cafe was fabulous! I'm a little sore in the saddle, if you know what I mean, but had a blast! We missed you Michael, and talked about how much you would have enjoyed it as well.

Gorgeous day and gorgeous scenery.

A wonderful place to eat.


I'm ready to go!


Mom's excited too!


Good times.


Nice view.

Labor Day '08

Well, labor day was great fun for me at work. (too bad you can't read sarcasm) Another day, another life saved though!! We did have a patient who was scheduled for a repeat C/Section in 10 days, who went into labor, so we ended up doing an emergency section for a number of reasons. Mom and baby are doing great. All in all it was a great day, even though I couldn't be with my family. So, my Mom sent me some pictures from the day she had with my Granddad, Aunts, Uncles, brothers, sisters, cousins, nieces and nephews!!

I sure did miss being there and seeing everyone. Sounds like it was a great time though!!
