Happy late Independence Day! We had a great 4th! We began our morning making crepes, flag-style. It was really fun and they were delicious. We think this just might have to become a Lee family tradition. It rained all morning so we couldn't go out until the afternoon. We headed down to a city festival/fair, but it looked pretty terrible, so we ended up going to Forest Park. Forest Park is one of the largest parks, or maybe the number one largest, in the nation. It's even bigger than Central Park. As we walked around, we wondered how much it cost for the upkeep because it is perfectly landscaped and absolutely beautiful. They show free Broadway plays there, and it's actually the touring broadway company! Josh and I are planning on going in a few weeks when my mom comes so she can watch Anna. We're really excited. We went and looked at the outdoor theater and it was awesome.
Here's a very patriotic arch. This is a very St. Louis thing to do. :-)
Behind us is the art museum. It's absolutely HUGE. We're excited to go because it's free admission and they have awesome art there, so we've heard. The grounds were incredible.
We thought this was the outdoor theater but it is actually just a pavillion. We hiked all of these stairs then were surprised to only find a bathroom. However, an interesting note is that this pavillion was the head place when the World Fair was held here. Cool huh?
Anna wanted to dip her toes in the water.
Say cheese!!
We had some of our friends over to go swimming and everytime Anna got close to little Lucas, she tried to eat his float. He didn't like that too much, but we had fun nonetheless.
The day we found out that I was pregnant, we went shopping of course! This is the very first outfit we ever bought for our little angel. She is finally old enough to fit in it, and she looked really beautiful that day. We couldn't really get her to smile for the pictures so this is the best we got.
