Play Date

Memorial Day weekend, Tucker met up with Aunt Laura, Catherine, Patrick and Sarah at the park. We met up with old childhood friends as well! It was a fun day afternoon. Tucker loves the park and trying to keep with the big kids. He loves sliding, running and climbing. Here are a few photos that have finally been uploaded (just about a month late).



Who's driving this car!?

Headed North- Our Family Vacation to St. Louis

Our final day in St. Louis was spent in the country. We headed up with Aunt Debbie and Uncle Jim and all our other cousins for a day of playing outside, fishing, and visiting. Tucker had a blast and didn't want to leave. He splashed in the kiddie pool Aunt Debbie set up, tried to do the zip line like all the other kids, played on the slide and swings, played with rocks, sat on a tractor, and played, played, played! We had a great trip and wish we could have stayed longer to visit with family! Playing in the pool

Harris and the boys (Jeremy, Ben and Will) had a night out at the Cardinal game thanks to Aunt Debbie. She set them up with awesome homeplate seats! Too bad the Cardinal's didn't win.
Great view with the arch

Waiting for the game to start!


Headed North- Our Family Vacation to St. Louis

For our second day, we took an outing with family to Grant's Farm! Tucker was able to see Clydesdale horses, feed llamas, and give milk bottles to goats. He had fun running all over and checking out all the animals!

Our visit with family in St. Louis started off with our visit to the zoo! What an amazing zoo! Birmingham definitely has some catching up to do! Tucker loved all the animals- especially the elephants and penguins! Checking out the elephants with Ben and Matt

One of Tucker's favorite things- all he wanted to do was sit on the frog.

Emperor Penguins! Our favorites! Tucker loves to do his Happy Feet dance!
