A VISIT WITH FRIENDS!!!

On Friday, my law school friend, Claire, came to St. Louis with her two boys for the weekend.  We all enjoyed a great visit with them and we hope we gave Claire a little break from life without her husband at home -- Dave is deployed to Afghanistan for 15 months.  We may not have gotten much sleep but we had lots of fun and even got to talk to Major Foley via a webcam . . . technology is amazing but frustrating (as we learned while trying to reach him!).  We spent time at the zoo, went swimming and even hired a sitter so we could have some adult time . . . dinner at Araka was GREAT!  Here are a few pictures of our fun!

A visit to the St. Louis Zoo (everyone napped after this except for Virginia!). . .
The new baby giraffe . . . 
The joy of a picture of 3 kids . . . someone is always moving!
Claire, Price and Harper on the carousel . . . aren't they cute?!
Loving the water spraying fan!!!!  I must admit it was very hot and the water felt great!
Jeb, Ford, Virginia, Price and Harper . . . 
Price, Virginia and Ford hanging out at home . . .
Cuddling with Mrs. Claire!!!
A popsicle on the front porch . . . I had to include this because my boys look so funny . . . I think they were being football players!
We loved having Claire and the boys and can't wait for "Foley Visit: Take Two"!!!
