Spring break 2015

Things got crazy in 2015 for Spring Break….ha!  Not really.  We didn't go anywhere as a family, as we have a little surprise approaching for the kids soon.  Can't go too much into detail incase Peyton gets on the blog site, which she occasionally does.  So Mike didn't have any time off, so the kids and I got together with some of our friends and took the train to Jeff City.  We did NOTHING except get off the train, walk to the hotel and the kids swam, swam, ate, swam, ate, watched a movie, swam and went to bed.  The next morning they were in the pool by 7:40.  They got out we ate breakfast and headed back to the train.  The kids had a great time, Staci and I did too!

I had never been on the train before (nor had the kids) so it was a fun little getaway.  We learned that you are never suppose to take the train from Jeff City on a Friday because they put inmates on there and ship them to their next destination….kind of weird.  But what do you know, we were indeed traveling from Jeff City on a Friday.  We did catch a glimpse of them at the station while waiting for the train, but they put the families on a separate car, so we never saw them again once we got on the train.


Waiting for the train in Kirkwood



Getting all settled in 


 Stopping for a quick "tourist" picture

Let the FUN begin!




The "adult beverages" that we packed needed a bottle opening….Staci somehow managed with a set of car keys.  We didn't got thirsty.  

The kids LOVED the all glass elevator!!!

Getting ready for a movie and popcorn

Maddie didn't make it through the movie or popcorn….tired baby!!!  

 Mommy and Maddie getting ready for bed….

 Big kids FAST asleep.  Notice my boobie trap on the door.  Peyton and Jack were sleeping in the front room.  Wasn't gonna have no intruder get to them first.  So we barricaded the door as best as we could.  Sad that this is the world we live in….

And the last kiddo goes to sleep.  A little girl in a bid ole bed!

Heading back to the station….good bye Jeff City.  It's been fun!
