Heading to St. Charles was probably one of the most anticipated stops of our trip. We were going to visit our good friends, the Dinkins. I have known Trish and Roxy since our first November in Seattle. This past December they made the move away from Seattle to the St. Louis area in order to be closer to family (I guess we can relate).
Samuel had been talking about going to see Roxy for the twelve days prior and told us that he was going to yell "Roxy!" and run up and give her a big hug. As we pulled up he did see her right away and did yell . The hug took a bit more warming up but by the end of our time there they were arguing like siblings. Good times.
While in St. Louis we had a great time. We loved catching up with Trish and Paul and meeting Everett for the first time. They introduced us to a new store, H&M, that I am now officially in love with. I didn't even shop for myslef, but Samuel and Mike got lots of back to school clothes. We also went to the zoo, played at the park and enjoyed spending time together. Here are a few of my favorite pictures of our days there.

Thanks so much for letting us stay with you. It was great to see you all and meet your new little guy. We are so thrilled that we are closer now and will get to catch up more often! See you soon!
