Sophie’s last play - Pippin
Although I wasn’t a fan of the actual play, I loved one particular cast member. I’m glad Sophie has all these memories to look back on and remember what fun she had in drama.

St. Louis with Jacob
Jacob has been off work following surgery for carpel tunnel and he’s going stir crazy. He and I ventured over to St. Louis, where yesterday, we enjoyed our time at the zoo, a casino, IKEA, explored some beautiful neighborhoods, saw some very interesting buildings and gawked at the world’s largest catsup bottle.
Today, we went to Third Degree Glass Factory, which was filled with beautiful glass baubles and art pieces.
Afterwards, we went to the aquarium, because, for whatever reason, that has always been his happy place. The entrance was so cool; you had this imaginary train ride through St. Louis and an awesome wave effect in the ceiling.
However, when you stepped off the train, anything resembling awesome ended. I have been to aquariums all over the country and this one was by far, the worst. $30 per ticket, plus paid parking and we were through the whole place in under 45 minutes. There were many empty tanks and exhibits, zero helpful signs regarding the exhibits and when we left, we agreed to never do that again. We grabbed lunch at one of my favorite places, Lotawata Creek, and headed home.
Still, it was fun to spend the time with Jacob. He is a constant source of amusement to me and he keeps me laughing.
