Sunday Brunch






Carl's mom and grandmother moved to St. Louis about a week and a half ago.  Total St. Louis additions for me:  9 (my kids, husband, Ingrid & Ryan, Carl's mom and grandma).  Not too shabby.  But what's not to love about St. Louis, really?  It's an easy sell.  :)  I'm guessing that those first 3 additions MAY have something to do with the latter additions as well.  With all of us living within 15 minutes of one another now, it is significantly easier to get together not just for holidays but for any reason at all.  Why not to celebrate a sunny Sunday?

Cardinals' Home Opener

 Yesterday was the Cardinals' home opener.  As good citizens of Cardinal Nation, we had to celebrate the day.  Lily had a playdate so I made them some traditional ball park food and some fun food, like the rice krispies made to look like baseballs.  We had the game on and windows open while the kids enjoyed running all around inside and out, enjoying this beautiful weather.
 
 Popcorn and sugared nuts gave us some of the (good) smells of the ball park.
 
Funny faces under the banner.  We had a (very) disappointing finish to yesterday's game, but that will never deter these Cardinals fans.  We'll be rooting them on again today.  Go Cards!!
