St. Louis or Bust

We just returned from our trip to St. Louis. We left yesterday about 1p.m and shopped, shopped, and shopped. We did manage to hit a Jack in the Box on the way back, for the baby of course.

Let's see, we must have stopped at three different malls, four different Motherhood stores, and 2-3 JcPenny's. They all had pretty good sales, and selections, at least better than those in Springfield.

Last night, we got back to the hotel room at about 9:45, so we had a full day of shopping. I was tired, and so was Tina. And then this morning came. We drove around St. Louis this morning, waiting for the stores to open up, and did some suburban sight-seeing. Pretty interesting town.

Then, we hit one last mall, and I think the total shopping spree was about $500, but I didn't hang out too close to the register. So, who knows.

The trip there and back was nice. The weather was/is about 75-80 degrees, and the roads were clear with no construction. We did almost end up in a ditch on the way back, when the guy next to us, decided he liked our lane more than we did. I was paying close attention and we arrived safe and sound! And now, I'm heading to the couch to relax for awhile before getting back into the grading stuff!

Stay tuned!
