Old town St. Charles



A couple weekends ago, my co-worker Brittany got married! The wedding, reception hall and of course the bride was all gorgeous! As Brittany and I would talk about her wedding at work, it really made me realize that weddings in Utah vs. weddings everywhere else are totally different! Michael and I were in for a treat according to what she had told us.

The day before the wedding was rainy and the day after was rainy, but the day of was just  cloudy and a little cold, it made for a perfect day! We went to the wedding ceremony but then had 4 hours in between before the reception, so Michael and I decided to explore a little bit. :) St. Charles where the wedding and reception was held, is about 30 minutes away from our house so we wanted to stay in that general area. We had heard about a fun place called Old Town St. Charles. We wen't there during the break and it is the cutest thing ever. Old cobble stone roads, cute little shops on both sides of the street, and the Missouri river lining it. Seriously people, the cutest thing ever! If anyone comes and visits us out here, we will definitely have to take you here.


Did I already say I loved this little town ;)

Michael took this picture, and I think it is quite cool. 

I like this picture because it is close to my nephew Bradens name :) 

By the Missouri River

This is how lots of the shops looked! It kind of felt like I was in Boston a little bit. 

There was this train track that was by the Missouri River. (Excuse the cheesy face)

In this shop there were a bunch of jams, dipping sauces and obviously hot sauce. Michael and  I thought this was a pretty funny one. 

Then we got tired of the cold and decided to do a little shopping! :) Michael and I both got warm hats, glove and scarves from the Burlington Coat Factory. It was time for the reception and it was nothing short of fun. It was very fun seeing all of my co-worker and bosses in a different atmosphere. Michael and I had a very fun time and are loving all of our many adventures that we are getting and making here in good ol St.Louis!

Until next time!
Love the Sauceda's in St. Louis!
