A weekend away

For Eric's 30th birthday I decided that it was time we took a weekend away from Noah and take some time for ourselves.  I had thought of going to St. Louis when we took our trip to Texas and went through a couple of month before.  He loved the idea so we called up Grandma and Grandpa Taylor and they were on board to spend the weekend with the little man.  Also Uncle Jason came into town to help out with a list of house projects we had come up with for my dad to do while we were gone.  (More on that later)

Off to the arch...we couldn't go to the top until the following morning because it was sold out!
Eric was loving all the photo ops

We rode the subway to get to dinner at Union Station
The arch at night is beautiful!
View from the top (I was freaking out at this point so we weren't up there for too long)
Eric was all smiles!!
We had a great time on our weekend away and got in plenty of much needed sleep!  Also Noah did great while we were gone and didn't freak out because we weren't there.

Also to add to our weekend away some stuff around the house got done that we have had on our list for awhile.  My dad and brother tiled our master bathroom floor and painted our dinning room (now the play room / sewing room)!  It was so nice to come home to a "new" house.  Thanks again guys for all of your hard work and to my mom for having to run around and keep Noah from "helping" too much with the projects!!!

Ha! That's pretty good to have childcare and home improvement while on vacation. Glad y'all had a fun trip!
