walking near the Missouri River in St Charles or as I called it "mississiouri"

Beautiful day and fun too!

All decked out in Cardinals Gear

Saturday there was Andrew's baseball tryouts in Peoria

Been a while since I posted anything on our blogger. Missed a few birthdays. Sorry about that but kinda think it is hard to keep track sometimes. So Happy belated birthdays to Samuel who turned 11 in Novemeber. Daughter Lisa's birthday was in December. Shawn had a birthday in January and more recent Holly.

We had an interesting weekend with Arizona being in the Super Bowl in Tampa. Last year Arizona hosted the Super Bowl. Would have never crossed my mind the Cards might be in it one year later. Here are a few pics from our weekend.

Happy Geocaching!!!

We have had fun geocaching (geo-cash-ing). Essentially you go around with a GPS and find caches that have little trinkets in them to trade out. The kids enjoy it and it gives us a change to get out of the house. With the end of a long winter and with finances being a little tight, geocaching is a fun free way to get some good faimly time in.

Here is a picture of Pinkerbelle and Skippy finding a cache hidden under that street light box. This type of cache is a micro-cache.

There are hundreds of thousands of caches around the world. Take a look at their website and sign up for a free account to start hunting. It's a great way to get outside and have some fun with the kids.

You can learn more at geocaching.com.
