VACATION Day!!

Daddy surprised us with a vacation day and we decided to spend the morning at some of St. Louis' fun attractions with Andrew while Nathan was in school.  After dropping Nathan off at school we headed downtown to the Arch.  We tried going up the Arch a couple of weeks ago with Andrew and weren't able to and he has been talking about it NON-STOP!!  Andrew was so excited to get to the top!!

Looking around St. Louis.

Andrew found Busch Stadium!!

Fred Bird's House :)

Getting a closer look - Andrew LOVES his binoculars!!

The Arch.
 
After all our fun 630 feet in the air, we headed to the Anheuser Busch Brewery for a tour and snacks :)  Andrew LOVED the Clydesdales, the huge holding tanks, the conveyor belts and of course root beer and pretzels for a snack.

The iconic Budweiser sign.

Andrew pointing out Daddy's favorite beer - Busch!!

Fascinating by all of the conveyor belts :)

Snack time!!
 
And then on the way home, we of course had to stop by Gus' Pretzels for some fresh, warm and soft pretzels - YUM!!
