2nd Gotcha Day Anniversary

We headed to St. Louis for our family vacation a few weeks ago. We had a great time! There are tons of kid-oriented activities to do (no, not the beer tour!). We celebrated our 2 year Gotcha Day Anniversary while on vacation. This was probably Zachary's favorite day of the trip. We spent a lot of time at the Magic House children's museum,which he loved! He also had one of his favorite foods for lunch at the Cheese-ology Macaroni & Cheese restaurant--they ONLY serve mac & cheese (some more unique than others). In some ways it seems like just yesterday that we were in China, holding our son for the first time. It's hard to remember what our days were like before Zachary! There is never a dull moment at the Kragel house. Thanks to God for creating our unique family! It was definitely worth the wait!


When asked what he wants to do when he grows up, Zach has a hard time choosing between doctor, ambulance "helper" or "worker guy at the grape restaurant" (AKA Olive Garden).
Mom & Dad enjoyed seeing the animals at the St. Louis Zoo. Zachary got bored with the animals. Instead his favorites were the carousel, the train, and face painting!
Can't go to St. Louis without going to the arch. Zachary thought the elevator ride to the top was cool. He asked if we could do it again "tomorrow."
These shots were taken in Pella, the day after the tulip festival. On Mother's Day we walked around looking at all the tulips. Did you know the yellow ones smell like bananas? The purple ones like grapes???!!
