St. Louis Cardinals

We are finishing up our family vacation. We went to St. Louis and Chicago. 


In St. Louis we went to the Arch. This was on Reagan's bucket list since it's in one of the Percy Jackson books. And my girl loves the Percy Jackson series!


We also went to a Cardinals game. Jay is going to all the baseball stadiums. He's gone to 23 so far. After this trip he'll have gone to 25. This is not as big of a deal to me as it is to him but if we are in a city that has a team I like to go to a game too. I've only been to 6 stadiums. 

At the Cardinals game when we stood up to sing the anthem this is when Reagan  realized she'd sat in something red and sticky. We headed for the bathroom to get her cleaned up. 

On our way out we saw an usher named Jenn in our section. I stopped and showed her Reagan's shirt and jeans and asked if she could send some one to clean her seat. Not only did she do that but she also got Reagan a new shirt. It's a really nice jersey! 

We were so thankful for Jenn's help and willingness to get Reagan a new shirt. I was able to clean the pocket of her jeans enough to get us through the game. While cleaning her jeans I decided the red sticky stuff smelled like a jolly rancher.   

After Reagan and I got back to our seats Jenn came and checked on us and made sure the shirt fit & the seat was clean. 

Jenn did a great job taking a bad situation and making it into a positive experience!  Thanks Cardinals!

  1. Love that the Arch was on Reagan's bucket list because of Rick's books! And bless Jenn's heart for helping out.

  2. My youngest loves the Percy Jackson series, too. I'll have to tell him about the arch in St. Louis and he might be interested in seeing it as well. Thanks for sharing your vacation with all of us!

  4. Sounds like a fun trip. Isn't the Arch remarkable! I have not been to a Cardinals game, but have a nephew...like your husband...who wants to see a game in all of the stadiums. Hope they both are able to do that...and what fun that you join in when you can.
