Shawn and I flew out to St. Louis to visit Mom for Mother's Day and to see how she spends her time out there! She lives in a great little town called Defiance and works on an organic farm. She can keep her horses there which is such a bonus for her. They just put in a new fence over several acres with automatic watering systems, they have plenty of shelter in the barn on the property. It's a beautiful farm! She lives near several wineries (we spent Mother's Day afternoon at one) and her back yard is on the Katy Trail for bikers and walkers. We had a great time and here are some pix from the weekend.
