We took a trip down to St. Louis to spend a Saturday with cousins. The plan was to just hang out, go to the zoo, and watch the hot air balloons take off in the afternoon.
It was a beautiful morning and we had a great start at the zoo, but by the afternoon it was over 90 degrees and everyone was starting to melt. We ended up leaving before seeing the hot air balloons inflate and take off, but it was a great day overall, and it's always fun spending time with family. Here are some pics.
Here's a pic of the balloon festival just before we left. The crowd was growing and it was just too hot for us to stay.
