Family Road Trip - Missouri🚗🗺👨‍👩‍👧‍👦😁

We took a week long trip at the start of June! We were invited to perform a concert at a church's 50th anniversary in Wisconsin, and on the way we stopped by St. Louis for a couple days to visit Mom's family. It had been four years since we had taken a family trip so we were all very excited for it!😁 We rented a transit van to carry all of us and our stuff. We brought our sound equipment and it was a tight squeeze to get that and the luggage in, but we made it work😄
Packing up what we could the night before.
We headed out bright and early at 7am Wednesday morning!
The trip to St. Louis was about 7 hours. A few minutes after we got to Grandpa and Grandma's, the tornado sirens went off.😱 We all hurried down to the basement and thankfully it just missed us.🙏🏻 What a bang to start the trip with!😂
The next day we took a trip to the zoo!
The polar bears were my top favorite! One was swimming in their pool and doing all sorts of antics😄
Lunch at Lakeside Cafe.
My favorite moment from this day was getting to meet a friend of seven years for the FIRST time! It was so special to meet and spend the day together🥰 (And yes...the matching shirts were planned😁)
Back at Grandpa & Grandma's and playing Codenames.😎


Stay tuned for Part 2 - Wisconsin!😁

New Subscriber Form!

Happy Monday! When I first started my blog, I used a website called Follow.It for my subscriber form. I was made aware recently that Follow.It was including adds at the bottom of their email notifications, which I wasn't happy with. I did some research and found another website that does not include adds. I have now taken off the Follow.It form and added in the new subscriber form that you can find by clicking the three bars in the top left corner of the home page. You will still receive emails from Follow.It until you unsubscribe from them(that option is at the bottom of the emails they send). I am using MailerLite now and am really excited about using it in the future! ~Grace

Sister Shopping Day!👧🏻👧🏻👧🏼💖🛍🛒

We girls took the day Monday and went shopping! Hobby Lobby was our first stop, of course😆, and also ran into JCPennys, Goodwill, and a health food store.  Hobby Lobby had their home decor half off so I got some new decorations for my room.😊 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 We stopped by Spring Lake Park to eat a picnic lunch! I accidentally left my phone open to the camera when I set it down on the picnic table and we realized how cool of a picture it looked.😄😍 Had to get a picture by an Air Force plane there!🤩 We went back to our childhood a little bit and tried out the play ground.😜  And that's it! Thanks for reading, and stay tuned for some pictures from a recent family trip to Missouri + Wisconsin!😎 ~Grace
