So far, so good..

Missouri... or as I call it, the state of sleeping in fear.. haha. Sometimes I wake up at like three in the morning just to make sure the weather is ok.. Chase loves it :) For those of you that know me, I kind of am a hypocontriact and lately Missouri has been kind of stormy. The tornado siren has gone off two times so far, even though we still have yet to see one, the rivers are about to flood over, and I swear this is the summer Missouri is going to get washed out thanks to a Sunday school lesson I had a couple weeks ago about the clearing out of Missouri. It actually is kind of exciting, and luckily I have Chase here to keep me sane and tell me not to worry, even though he is laughing half the time at me when I get scared.


Here is the outside of our Apt. it was such a pretty night Emily and I decided to be models and show off the beautiful night sky.
This last weekend was really fun. We went to downtown St. Louis and just walked around. The night life here is huge! There is never a dull moment. We also went to the zoo with Emily and Lane. Want to know the best thing about the zoo here? Its free!!! It was a really nice zoo and huge!!! I loved it, I just love animals!!!
Imagine if we had to use this as our transportation today... ouch... I just love this little boys haircut...
can you feel the love tonight...
Ok, please tell me this monkey looks exactly like Harry from Harry and the Henderson's!! He made me want to go watch it...
The amazing couple Lane and Emily..




This monkey had no hair on it's body whatsoever.. it was kind of creepy...
This reminds me of the Jungle cruise at Disneyland.. I swear the elephant was about to squirt me at any moment...




Work has been going good and Chase is doing great in his sells.. life here is growing on me and I actually really like it. Emily and I have our girl days while the boys are at work and just enjoying the summer. Well I have to go, Chase and I are getting Emily and Lane hooked on Prison Break and were starting the first season right now.. I love Micheal Scofield!! :)

Sounds like you guys are doing good! Great that the Zoo was free and the hairless monkey was a little freaky. Madison asked what it was?? She was so happy to pictures of Chase and Dana.

I'm glad you are enjoying it there. These are honestly the moments and memories you will remember for a long time! I'm glad you have found such good friends there. That makes all the difference in the world! I would be worried about the weather if I was you as well but I'm sure you will be just fine! I'm just a freak out as well. I loved the pics from the zoo but I have to say that bald monkey was gross!!! Keep making the memories! Life goes by way too fast!
