*** First LPA Meeting & Incredible Pizza Company ***

Hi! I know it has been a while since our last post, but there has been alot going on around the Adam household. We were able to attend our first LPA (Little People of America) meeting in August and met some wonderful people. In this chapter, they have a lot of children in Jeremiah's age range and he had a great time playing with other children just like him. They had the social at Lone Elk Park in St. Louis and there was a family of elk that rested in the shade beside our pavilion. It is a free range park, so they are able to roam freely. They also had buffalo/bison at this park, but they were in a different area. They kept the animals separate with cattle gaps and fences.

After the social, our family went to the Incredible Pizza company in St. Louis for fun and pizza. It is very similar to Ghatti Town in MS, but has a few more attractions indoor. Jeremiah loves to bowl and they have a miniature bowling alley that he had a blast playing. The balls are much smaller than a regular bowling ball, so he was able to hold and throw it by himself. Of course, he spotted the arcade game, Deal or No Deal, and had to play. He loves that game. Robert and Jeremiah played the Nascar arcade car and all Jeremiah kept telling Robert was slow down. It's a new phrase that he likes to use alot.

We were able to travel home to Mississippi in September for a quick visit. It was Jeremiah's and I first time to travel by ourselves and he did a great job. I didn't get any pictures from that week. Our family has been to two associations the past two weekends. We had a great time at each one and are enjoying meeting new people in our area. I forgot to take my camera both weekends, so no pictures. I'm going to have to do a better job at taking the camera with us.
