St. Louis Presentation/Vacation

We left for our vacation on Halloween after church to drop off Benton at my parents' house and stay over at Kevin's parents' house. We had dinner with Kevin's parents, and we saw some of their trick-or-treaters. Our favorite costume was a toddler giraffe! Although, there were two pretty cool cats, also (Kevin's sisters R&R).

We knew we would miss Benton so much, but we also knew he was in great hands!

We arrived in St. Louis on Monday afternoon. Our room in St. Louis was amazing at Hilton at the Ballpark. We were on the 24th floor, and we had the most amazing view!

We were only two blocks from the arch!

Monday night we ate at a great local Italian restaurant, Charlie Gittos. It was really yummy! Tuesday, we slept in, walked around downtown, and then had couple's massages at Indigo Massage and Wellness. We both agreed that it was the best we've had so far! Kevin spent the rest of Tuesday and Wednesday preparing for his presentation on Wednesday afternoon. He did a great job! I went shopping and found some cute clothes for my new job and read a book.

Thursday, we ventured over to the arch! We also lounged around the hotel's pool that afternoon, and we went to a friend's restaurant Thursday night, Farmhaus. It was delicious! We headed home on Friday, and it was so great to see our pup! It was a great trip!
