St Louis Day One


For a mini family reunion on the Pederson side we took a long weekend trip to St Louis. Because of a snow storm we had to leave around 5am to make sure we would make it to the airport on time Friday morning. Tyler was so excited to ride on the plane again that he woke up at 4. The boys once again did great on the plane. We checked their carseats this time so I was somewhat concerned about them in their seats, but Carter only tried to take off his seat belt once and then it wasn't a problem. Tyler slept for maybe 20 minutes of the ride while Carter slept none.

When we got off the plane Nana and Bapa were waiting. They took the boys to the hotel on the light rail while Justin and I got the rental car. After some lunch at the hotel we tried to get the boys to have some naps, but they would have nothing to do with that. We met up with Uncle Boyd, Aunt Sharalee, Griffin, Noah, and Faith. We grabbed some dinner when Aunt Dawnie, Uncle Duane, Kim, and Theron met up with us. By the time we were done it was close to 10 o'clock and needless to say the boys were ready for bed (with no naps at all that day we were very pleased at their great behavior). We weren't sure how they would sleep sharing the same bed, but once again we were pleasantly surprised.
