Finally in Missouri!

We finally made it to Saint Louis! We left early Tuesday (May 12) and arrived late Wednesday (May 13). The trip was fairly uneventful, but we did drive through some awful winds from Denver to Saint Louis. We are happy to have arrived safe and sound. Leila was fantastic riding in the big truck. She rode the whole way in the truck, entertaining both Grandpa Eddington and daddy while she made up songs about silos, radio towers, birds, etc. Ben thought he would be living the rest of his life in a car seat and was not very happy about it--he had a harder time with the trip, but he made it okay as well. We were happy to see Matt & Heather, along with Jordan & Chelsea when we arrived and the kids had a great time playing together. We've gone into the city a few times, checked out the history museum and the botanical gardens. Here are some pictures of the adventures of the past few weeks!
