John’s Graduation announcements and address labels have been ordered from Shutterfly. I can check another thing off the Senior list!
Ordered!
More Home Office Decorations
I brought home my 25-year award for the University of Missouri, and I also made a picture collage to hang in my home office. The only things left to buy for the wall decorations are two floating shelves. After that, I can get everything moved around on the walls to where I want them. This year is the year of home updates!
Guest Bedroom
We are beginning to work on making the guest bedroom into more of an office for me. Ultimately, we will paint and change the guest bed to a Koala couch, but I need to get the walls in order first. So, step one is to change the decorations to what I want in my office. I reached out to my aunt because she makes hanging planters, wall planters, etc. She made these planters for me, and I found the fake plants at Hobby Lobby. I love how they turned out! Now, it is time for the next project.
Mizzou Baseball
We spent the evening at Taylor Stadium taking in some Mizzou Baseball for $2 Tuesday.
It was a beautiful night for baseball and time spent with Andy and John.
New Soap
I experimented with a new soap base today – Argan Oil. It is a clear soap base and the colors are very vibrant. This one is inspired by the green and black of Big Tree Cycling. The scent is “Mountain Trail” from The Flaming Candle and reminds me of being in the Colorado mountains for our yearly team trip. I love it!
Saint Louis University
While Andy participated in Sigma Chi initiation, John and I wandered around Saint Louis University. We came across this big chess piece, and I had to get a picture of John with it. He even smiled for me.
Afterwards, we enjoyed lunch at Gus’s World Famous Fried Chicken with a friend of Andy’s from Sigma Chi and then headed home. Even though it was short, it was a fun trip for John’s Senior Spring Break.
St. Louis Zoo
We spent the day at the St. Louis Zoo.
We got to see Jet, the elephant baby. He was a little tired.
We saw the spring training version of the Sea Lion show.
We visited the penguins and puffins. The highlight was Andy being splashed by a King Penguin!
John got to enjoy Dippin’ Dots. Do not let the look fool you. He really did enjoy them.
It was a great day for walking around one of our favorite zoos. Now, it is off to the hotel to relax for the night.
