We drove from Branson to C-town Illinois to see Rob's family. The ride there wasn't fabulous, our poor Porter hated being in the car and let us know it! Once we were there, it was so great to be there. Being in Illinois and seeing so many familiar places and being with our family just felt like home. On Wednesday we went to the Butterfly house in Faust Park. I LOVE this place, and love to watch the kids reaction. When you walk in , you can see some insects, and spiders. We then walk through two sets of doors and into a gigantic green house type dome just filled with trees, waterfalls and butterflies EVERYWHERE! They fly all around you and land on you. It is beautiful. On Thursday we went to the St. Louis Zoo. Which is the best zoo I've ever been to... or maybe its just filled with great memories. It was fun to see Porter go through their penguin house, since he's older this time, he absolutely loved it! Its Savannah's favorite part too. This time they also got to pet stingrays. There was a stingray exhibit where the kids actually got to pet the stingrays. After the zoo we ate lunch at Fitz's! Its one of my favorite places downtown. Me and Merrill used to go there a lot. Its fun because its a soda bottleing company too, so the kids can see the soda being made. That night we ate diner at Rob's sisters house, it was so much fun for everyone to be together. All in all a very good time.
