My day began with...
A scavenger hunt from Natalie
In the afternoon we set out for the Missouri History Museum's kick-off party to celebrate their newest exhibit
250 in 250. St. Louis turns 250 in 2014! To capture our city's rich history and culture, the Missouri History Museum does it through the stories of 50 People, 50 Places, 50 Images, 50 Moments, and 50 Objects. If you've never been -- it's a great place to visit with or without kids. And, it's FREE.

| When ice freezes a river solid, blocking all river traffic, it's called an ice gorge. When this happened in 1905, adventurous St. Louisans like the woman in this photo flocked to the riverbanks to take advantage of the opportunity to venture across the river on foot. This woman is not alone — if you look behind her, you'll see a line of people who all wanted to say they'd crossed the river without a boat or a bridge. And, thanks to Step Inside Historic St. Louis at the Missouri History Museum, Noah and Natalie can say they were there as well. |

| The kids decorated guitars in honor of one of St. Louis' great musicians, Chuck Berry |
 |
| No party is complete without cake. They decorated cupcakes and enjoyed hot cocoa. |
 |
| Carter, Natalie and Jenna rock out. |
 |
| The World's Fair exhibit was definitely their favorite. |
 |
| After MO Hist. we headed to dinner. We've had reservations for weeks! |
