Christina's Birthday

We celebrated Christina's birthday this past weekend by going to the Fox Theater in St. Louis to see Wicked. A couple we're friends with also went along. After the show we went to dinner at Vin de Set, a trendy French place near downtown. We had an awesome time. Happy birthday Christina!

Deck Renovations

We've been working on constructing new railings and getting the whole deck ready to re-stain. It's been a lot of hard work but is starting to look really nice. Finished pics will hopefully be up soon.

Summertime is Here

We're hanging out at Christina's brother's house this weekend. Carissa has made it to the third step on her own but isn't too keen on having us carry her around in the pool.

Ring Pops

Carissa had her first ring pop and loved it. Who wouldn't? It's sugar in the convient form of a ring.

New Landscaping

We started this project on Memorial weekend and finally finished this past week. There was a tree that was getting too big and some bushes that were getting ugly before. We added the upper tier and the new plants. It looks very empty compared to the overgrown mess that was there before but the new plants will fill out in the next several years.
