I know, I know, first I post a video about shame and humiliation, then I fall off the side of the earth for two weeks! What’s up with that? Well, would you believe I was kidnapped by the Standards and Practices Police for YouTube? No? Yeah, because their acronym would be SAPPY, and that’s just too cute for words. Bordering on the precious, isn’t it?
So the truth is, I was hijacked by the arrival of our son (from Boston) and his 2 1/2 year-old, who spent a lovely week with us! We were blessed with wonderful weather, so we covered some of the town’s high spots together: the local pumpkin farm (same one we took our kids to before they invented grandchildren), the world-famous St. Louis Zoo, and the amazing Museum of Transportation. Photos galore, all right here for your dining and dancing pleasure!
Just as that visit was drawing to a close, we skipped town and drove up to Chicago for a fabulous wedding! Don’t you worry—I have photos of that, too, so you don’t have to miss a moment of my life from the past couple of weeks. I didn’t mean to go AWOL on you—it just sort of worked out that way.

What a fantastic hostage situation to be in. :) I can tell a good time was had by all!
ReplyDeleteWe LOVE to take my mom hostage. Things are just more fun when she comes along with us! BTW, I enjoyed your about me section. I admire someone who can be so funny so effortlessly.
ReplyDeleteOK now.
ReplyDeleteTwice I have misplaced my comment. Here is what it said--sort of. It gets shorter every time I write it.
That is the cutest little face and it looks like you had wonderful fun!
Leah, sounds like you had a wonderful time with your son and granddaughter! Good for you for taking some time off from cyberspace to enjoy your family, the fall season, and the local color!
ReplyDeleteAwww great pics! Looks like fun was had by all!
ReplyDeleteTotally justifiable excuse: the little blond one made me do it!
