As requested

This is our one sight seeing venture during our trip.  We stopped at the Gateway Arch in St. Louis, MO. We parked our car and walked over (it was Jammie Day, so the kids are all wearing jammies, in fact, it may be the day after our scary HoJo stay, which would be WHY it was Jammy Day.)  They were really happy to run around.

Isn’t that pretty?  Spencer couldn’t wait to climb to the top of the “Rainbow Tower”.

This is a view from the top of the tower.  Can you see the big stick figure in the snow?

There was a museum as well

Our crazy small kitchen.  It’s so small I want to cry most days that I’m making dinner, and do about every 3rd day.

Here is our living room/where the kids sleep.  This was the day I really needed a nap.  I laid down on the couch and gave the kids pillows and turned on some Bearenstien Bears movies.  I had a nice nap.

And so did Spencer 🙂  Isn’t my flash awesome?  This room was DARK, like step
on my son kind of dark.

Look at this smile

And here is some pasta I made the other day.  It’s a recipe I got from The Pioneer Woman.  The verdict? Matt says it’s the best pasta I have ever made.  Yummy!  Do you love my fine china?
