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!
