Our little family is finally all back together in St. Louis. Three weeks ago, Amy, Adam and Emily headed up to Chicago while I stayed here to work. Then, I met Amy and Emily in Washington D.C. while Adam visited Ninny and Papa Kreidler. Amy and Emily headed back to Chicago, picked up Adam, and went to Wisconsin. I joined them for a few days, and we drove home. On the way, we dropped Emily in Springfield for a week of Girl Scout camp, and Adam had some alone time with Mom and Dad. Finally, I drove up to Springfield after work last night to pick up Emily, and we are finally all together again.
I got Emily home around 11 last night, and Adam was already asleep. So, I'm not surprised that when I got up to run at 6 this morning that Adam woke Emily up. I'm not sure who missed who more.
Today's run was a 13-mile training run for the Chicago Marathon (10/11/09) - it's really starting to get serious now!
After the run was done, we checked out the historic Soulard Farmer's Market just south of downtown St. Louis. It was wonderful! The market has existed since 1779 and had a ton of vendors with fresh fruits, vegetables, meats, and clothing and also had some food stands, etc. There was a great mix of people there - people of all races and socio-economic status, old and young. We found great prices on produce, and loaded up for the week.
Here are a few pictures this weekend...
We'll see what tomorrow brings!

Adam told me to make a silly face while I enjoyed a post-run "mystery pint" (Budweiser) at lunch today!
