Sisterhood of the Traveling Cousins

Nancy, Marsha, Deana, and I spent last weekend in St. Louis, eating, shopping, drinking, and going the see the Radio City Music Hall Christmas Show at the Fox. What a great time we had! We started at the Galleria, ate a huge lunch at the Cheese Cake Factory, shopped a lot!, and them proceeded to get lost in the mess that is the "Big Dig" on Hwy 64/40. Through the kindness of strangers, we managed to find our hotel at Union Staion. Harold Glenn met us for dinner Saturday night and drove us to dinner at Vito's. What a great name! He then drove us to the theater, where we walked in just as the first number was beginning. We had "golden circle" seats, and it was a wonderful show. I would like to take the grandkids next time. After, we caught a cab back to the hotel. Next morning we met David and Kathy and their daught Kelly and family for breakfast. More shopping at Bordes and Trader Joes (which is my new favorite store) and then home. We had to come home, there was no more room in the car for shopping! One of the next trips on the list for the cousins is a tour of the wine country around St. Genevieve.
