Not far from our house, there is an awesome place called Grant's Farm. Once a summer resort owned by Ulysses S. Grant, it's a beautiful animal preserve that is now owned by Anheuser-Busch (the Budweiser family), so it's free to the public! They even hand out free beer to those who want it. :) We had a great time there, and Abby keeps asking when we can go back and feed the baby goats.

Carrie! I'm so glad you posted those pictures! St. Louis looks like it's treating you guys well! Your house is absolutely darling, with Carrie written all over it, from the wagon full of flowers on the front porch to the little daisy hanging in the bathroom. You've done a great job! And I'm so glad you got a piano! Hooray!
And happy birthday!
It's so great to see more pictures. I love how you've set up your house! You've made it so cute inside and outside. Marian would LOVE that huge sandbox. We definitely need to visit when she can enjoy that. Adam commented that Katie has thinned out a little. Marian has too in the last couple months--they must be getting old and losing some of the baby fat. :(
So happy to hear how you are enjoying St. Louis. Also loved the fact that are gardening and having fun with that. Can't wait to go to Grant's farm with you and my grand-daughters!!!! And the piano looks beautiful...your "breezeway" room looks like it will be filled with action, togetherness, and a "lot of livin'!"
Wow! Lots going on with your family. I love the house! If we ever have a home will you come decorate for us? It's wonderful. It's functional and personal all at the same time.
Your girls are beautiful (and growing). I'm sure there's some excitement around the house for yet another one to come along.
You've done much in the last while and there's still more to come. Life moves along so quickly.
So great to hear from you! I love your blog. Your family is adorable and your house in St Louis looks so charming. I love old houses. Good luck with your new life in the Midwest and with your pregnancy. How fun to have a boy! Congrats.
It looks like you guys have gotten all settled and are enjoying your time in St. Louis! What a fun family day...love the house too! So cute! I'm happy you got a piano also! You're so talented, you will definately put it to good use. Also, did you get your hair cut? It looks shorter, but I can't tell! :)
Hey Linscotts,
You new house is looking sweet. Hopefully we can come down and visit you guys pretty soon.
Or maybe we can meet up in Chicago or something.
I just finished taking the bar so we are ready to party.
Your girls are way cute, can't wait to see them again.
Carrie-
Hey we loved seeing pic of your place it looks like a great house! You are such a cute decorator too. It sounds like you are having fun exploring St. Louis. That is awesome the Grant Farm is Free, we love Free stuff. I wish Spokane had a zoo of some sort. Oh I was going to tell you I think I know your Bro in Law Adam. He and I worked at the BYU Bookstore. I didn't know he was married to Martha that is awesome!! If you talk to them tell him hi from Carly Fullmer (Dunn). Jimmy says to tell Luke hello and ask him how he is liking Radiology? Well I better run , take care.
love-carly
Carrie, I'm glad you guys are getting all settled. Your house is darling! I hope you're enjoying being 'home owners' Hopefully you'll be able to run into my good friend Kim. Have fun and keep in touch!
"Buggie"--How fun to find your blog (from Katie H's). Your family is darling! I have linked you to my own blog--hope that is okay--and I sent you an invite for viewing. I hope all is well for you. "Sage" Leslie K
Luke and Carrie:
I have been keeping up with Abbie's surgery progress through Teisa and Lance.
I just want you to know that our thoughts are with Abbey and your family.
I know everything will go well.
