Family vs. Food

Vacation is awesome because we EAT.

Teenager watched Man vs. Food, and insisted we stop at the St. Louis stops of Pappy's and Crown Candy. We did, and it was AWESOME.

We have had fabulous buffet breakfasts. Omelets, bacon, heavy cream and strawberries...

This evening we ate at the resort restaurant. Lamb chops, strip steak... and the desserts...

I won't lie and say the vacation has been perfect (see entries below) but it IS true that we laugh way more than we cry! :-) The teenager has been a particular joy this time around (which makes me think there is a lot of hope left for daughter!). He is a lot of fun - hard to believe five years went so fast!
