Club Placeway, July 4th edition, was another success. The weather was excellent (especially since the last two years it had rained). The kids seemed to enjoy themselves. No one was hurt, which is always a plus. Thanks to everyone who stopped by.

Plenty of pics after the jump…

Kerry’s Brother, Jim, Natalie and the girls made the trek from Florida to St. Louis for the holiday weekend. What better time to break in the new four wheelers Poppe bought! Unfortunately I had to work, but it looked like the girls (and Colin) had a great time. That is, until the “incident.” Someone took a turn a little too sharp, going a little too fast. Fortunately, the only injury was a few bruises. Click on for pics…

My sis, brother-in-law, nephew and niece spent the weekend in St. Louis with us. We had a great time. Unfortunately Friday was a rain out, but we had fun anyway, just hanging out together. On Saturday, Steve and I took Caleb and Erin to their first Cardinals game. For 3 year olds, they did exceptionally well. The weather was great and they had a blast. More pics after the jump…
