Delayed Recap of our first half of summer vacation!

** This post was written Sunday afternoon but because of the less than stellar Internet connection it is just now being posted on Thursday! Oops!

It has been a crazy whirlwind first half of our trip to Texas so far, but we are having a blast! It is so great to reconnect with friends and catch up on how life is going. It always reminds me to appreciate how cool it is that I get to live in Denmark and experience all of the new and exciting things. I've also really enjoyed hearing about all the adventures that have been going on over here while I've been away! :-)

Klaus has been getting the FULL American treatment on this trip including his first snow cone, his first Major League Baseball game (Go Rangers!), the first time getting to go thru the "fast line" in immigration and his first root beer float! :-) so far the only thing he's not a fan of has been the root beer float, he thinks its ruining 2 perfectly good things and way mess with a good thing?

 

Last night was our American wedding reception, I can't even begin to describe just how happy and grateful I felt to be surrounded by so many amazing people from all parts of my life! We had a blast getting to see everyone, I just wish I could have spent more time with everyone individually, but please know that I was sooooo happy to see everyone who made it out last night!

We are currently in the car heading to St.Louis for a quick trip to visit my grandparents as well as do some of the tourist things with Klaus who will be seeing St.Louis for the first time! :-) I'm hoping to show him the Arch, the Muny, possibly the zoo and of course some of my favorite restaurants in the Loop and CWE! :-)
 
I will post more later but I just wanted to do a quick update while I had a bit of time in the car! :-)
 
XOXO,
Joy
