Labor Day

Since Jeremy ditched us for the weekend to fly out to Boise. I decided I would make the best of the weekend and try and have some fun with the kids We decided to check out some fun free stuff in St. Louis. We started out with a hike at our local nature preserve Powder valley. It has a great visitor center with fun activities for the kids and some pretty and simple hikes.

We then decided to go to the Turtle Park. It is a park with giant turtle sculptures that you can climb and play on. The kids thought it was great. We have been there once before but it has been almost three years now, so it was new to them. They had a great time pretending, and jumping and climbing on all those turtles.

Olivia's favorite part was to sit on this Turtle and stare at the cars rushing by on the free way. She was so mesmerized she didn't want to leave.
