Monday Mingle - Celebrating 9 Years of Marriage in St. Louis

Eighty   MPH Mom Blog

Each week Jennifer at 80 MPH Mom host Monday Mingle - 3 simple questions - answer them in the form of a vlog and then link up! :) It's a great way to get to know other blogger's and for your readers to get to know you!


NEXT WEEK’S QUESTIONS: Summertime fun:

1. When is the last time you went to a beach? Where?

2. What are your plans for this summer?

3. What are your favorite summer recipes (you know, those that don’t require the oven!)






We have been enjoying the St. Louis area all weekend long...here are a few of my favorite things:

The Ralph Butler Band was performing at the Concert in the Park:

We stayed at the beautiful Park Avenue Mansion: The inn keepers Mike and Kathy are such gracious hosts and their home is amazing!!




We got to see the St. Louis Cardinals play Milwaukee Brewers:


I got my first taste of Bahama Hooch (they chose the name) - it was a mix of tropical fruit juices and a whole lot of Rum!!

And the dish that I have been trying to recreate since last year - The Square One Grazing Plate:

Have a fabulous Sunday - I am road tripping it back to OK - 7 hours of driving time - thank goodness Hubby stopped to pick up some comedy cd's as there are not a lot of radio stations that come in for a good 2 hours of the trip! :)

  8. Happy Anniversary!!!

    :( Yeah, that face is for you never having been to the beach. That makes me sad just to imagine that. If you want to go swimming you should go East or South but the West Coast is beautiful...the water is colder though! My Mingle was done in RI and the water was PERFECT.

    Hope you have a great week!
