Before we left on our long vacation we enjoyed a busy but fun 4th of July week-end. On Friday we ventured into St. Louis. After a quick trip to Costco, we met at Jon and Elise's house to pack a picnic dinner. Then, in true summer style we went to eat dessert first. We wanted to try the famous Ted Drew's custard. The "original" custard shop of St. Louis. It was good, but I'll take Bobby's anyday. Then we headed out to stake our claim for prime grass spots to enjoy the fireworks. We met up with the Pearsons and all the kids had a blast. (There were 3- 8 yr olds, 3- 6 year old girls, and 3 -under 2, not to mention Bella and her friend Elijah). The Counting Crows were playing a free concert before the fireworks. They were set up along the river and we were on the arch grounds, but they had a HUGE screen they broadcast the concert to. It was an enjoyable evening even though the clouds kept spitting at us and threatening to erupt ay any minute. Fortunately, it waited to erupt until we were home and safe in bed.
