CityGarden

I absolutely love living in a small town and the feeling of safety and security that comes with it.  However, there are days that I so miss living in the city.  However, I am so grateful that we are close enough to St. Louis to take advantage of all of the free, fun, family activities that it holds. 

This venture took us to the Citygarden.  I was so impressed as it was my first visit.  The garden offers lots of art and sculpture for grown-ups and FUN waterplay for kids.  Well worth the trip for the free entertainment!
 Cole was thrilled to be able to play and get wet in his normal clothes.  I was so glad I thought ahead enough to bring sunscreen and a change of clothes (I surprised myself with the thinking ahead part!)
 Seriously, how fun does this look!?  I wanted to run through with him!
 However, Maxine and I sat and watched from the sidelines while she snacked.
 Cole did a little (creepy) people watching from close up.
 Then Max napped in her stroller while we followed Cole around.
 Cole loved the Pinnochio statue!
I may have had to drag him away....but I promised him another visit!
