...The Day Aunt Nina Graduated

What do you get when your baby sister graduates with a Masters Degree in Accounting?

• A proud family
• A great lunch at The Spaghetti Factory
• A helicopter ride over the Mississippi River
• A walk around the Arch 
• A fun-filled day spent with family making great memories

We are so blessed!

Makayla wanting to suck a noodle with Aunt Nina.  She wants to meet in the middle and kiss.

Makayla gets her smooches from sucking noodles like Lady and the Tramp and Mason looks for smooches by cleaning his plate and looking at me with that heart-breaker face!

Getting cooled off by the hose from the fire truck.

Walking to the helicopter - 5 gallons of sweat from our brow,

Riding in the helicopter - $105

Makayla's reaction being in a helicopter, over the river, flying in the sky - priceless!

Our walk to the Arch. 

A great day in St. Louis with the family...all because one smart girl graduated!  Thanks Aunt Nina, and Grandma & Grandpa Allen for having fun with us!

On the way to St. Louis today, we had only been on the road for 10 minutes and Makayla had to poop. She was in the back seat begging to poop in the grass or on the road. When we would tell her no, she begged ''just a little bit''...the story of our travels!
