Since Mike turned 40 a couple of weeks ago, I knew I had to do something special for his birthday. After all, I will be 40 one day and will want something fabulous for my big day. Mike loves the St. Louis Cardinals, so I thought why not surprise him with a trip to St. Louis. So for his birthday, I made all these fabulous plans for him and I must say, it was the best 3 day vacation we have ever had. We watched 2 games, toured the brewery, went up in the arch, visited Union Station and Laclead's Landing. I must St. Louis is a great vacation get away. We plan to go back later this summer and take the kids. There is still so much stuff we wanted to do that we weren't able. We stayed at the Hilton Ball Park while we there. We had the SWEETEST girl check us in. Her name was Tier (love the name). She really gave us the hook up. The view of Busch Stadium from our room was priceless. When Tier found out Mike was fireman and it was his birthday she really pulled out all the stops. We were treated like royalty. She had wine and chocolates sent to our room, we had access to the conceirge lounge and a fabulous breakfast buffet. Her husband just happened to be a St. Louis firefighter, so we exchanged shirts. She was really the sweetest thing ever. We exchanged contact information and we hope that she looks us up when she comes to Arkansas to visit her neice at UAPB. Take a peak at some of our pictures. And since I haven't mentioned it lately, have I told you all just how much I love this man? He is absolutely one of the greatest people I know! I hope this birthday was definitely one that he will never forget! I love you Mike, I hope this is the first of many birthday's that we will celebrate together!
