Fall trip to St. Louis

We had a wonderful extended trip to St. Louis this past weekend! The kids were excited to spend the night at Grandma and Grandpa Buck's. Fortunately, we were able to spend a lot of time visiting family and friends. Maia & Chase had a blast watching Uncle Matt play in his kickball tournament (his team won). Afterwards, we went to the City Garden in St. Louis. Maia & Chase spent an evening with Great Grandma Buck and Sister Mary Agnus. They also reunited with their much missed friends, Ava, Samson, and their new little sister, Stella. The main event for the weekend was Uncle Bill's annual Halloween party. It was a gorgeous day, probably the warmest we've ever been at Bill's party. There were many people, costumes, horses, a pinata, candy, hayride, bonfire, and don't forget the Mulligan Stew!!
