St. Louis, MO. 12-19 Sep 2012

We arrived in St. Louis Wednesday night & were greeted, as usual by my 100+ pound golden retriever, Cooper. We spent a week in St. Louis. Most of our time there we spent catching up with my family, friends, eating, eating & more eating.
Friday night we played Mom & Dad & babysat my 2 year old nephew, Ethan. Jeremy had met Ethan once before & it was love at first sight then & it was love at second sight this time too. Ethan even asked Jeremy to smell his stink feet & asked him to take a bath with him.
Saturday we went to the Soulard Farmers Market, browsed some of Missouri’s delicacies such as “goose poop” & enjoyed Bloody Mary’s. Later we went to the Great Forest Park Balloon Race & watched as the hot air balloons (slowly) raced through the sky.
Sunday we had a family BBQ at my parents house & Jeremy impressed everyone with his culinary skills by making buffalo chicken dip. It must have been good luck because the Rams actually won that day.
We left St. Louis Wednesday morning & headed to Memphis!
