It's been awhile,...again. I need to make it a point to blog at least every other day. Blah.
This past week, Alex and I went to Branson, Mo. He had to work a bit and I was able to come along and use my two personal days. It was fun. I got the chance to shop around and he was able to work. I attended the Titanic Museum and I loved it! It's definitly a great experience if you haven't gone.
On Friday, we came home to Jackson. The next morning, we woke up bright and early and drove up to St. Louis. On our way up, Alex said that he wanted to see this cabin that some people we know, own. I was all, "I don't care." They (Emily, Derek, and Alex) kept saying that we were going to Bass Pro the minute we get to the city. Of course, I was annoyed. We ALWAYS go to BPS. When am I going to get a break?? We suddenly turned onto a beaten path....CHARLEVILLE WINERY....is what the sign said. I literally yelled, OMG! They were just laughing and asked if I had any idea. NO WAY. Not at all. That's what's crazy, Alex can keep a secret from me any time.
The weather was beautiful, we were the only people there for the first 45 minutes. The view is amazing and if you haven't been, please go! You'll thank yourself for it. What's even better, Emily, who always seems to have a problem finding a wine she likes, found a wine! We were both excited.
As we left, preparing to make our way North for the game; Emily is an avid Geocacher. We found one outside the winery! This is my second find with Emily and I'm starting to like it even more. ;)
The game was fun, but the Blues lost....boo! At least Emily and I each got a 1.5lb of fudge at Union Station before we left.
That was the best weekend I've had in a long time! I have an amazing husband and great friends!
