STL Roadtrip
My dad runs a company out of St. Louis which really stinks cause he's away from home alot... but it's also cool cause we get to take roadtrips to visit him in St. Louieee. It also gives me an excuse to bust out my old Nelly CDs and rap the trip away with my sidekick hubs. My dad's birthday was the same weekend after my parent teacher conferences so we decided it was the perfect weekend for a mini vacay. We got into town Friday night and hit up the night scene... sadly no pics :(
Saturday we first hit up the Budweiser brewery. The first stop on the tour was to the Clydesdale's stables. I'm not a horse person at all but I LOVED the pretty Clydesdales.
The inside of the stable was redic... a chandelier?! Are ya kiddin' me?
There was also two of the Bud Dalmations running around so I had to go chase them down.
The stables personalized with their names and everything.
Trenton, coming from a Coors Light family, felt like quite the traitor ;)
Me and my dad... with the horse getting its bath in the background haha.
Inside the brewery... the chandeliers were from the St. Louis World Fair in 1904. WOW.
Typical tourist pic :)
Everything was so shiny and pretty!
The buildings had such cool architecture.
The famous Bud building and sign.
Free beer and pretzels? Don't mind if I do! Since I'm already a Bud Light girl... I decided to try something new.
Trenton and B-Mac
Beer in goblets... being classy for a change
No trip to STL is complete without going by the Arch. We all had been in it before so we passed on touring it again this time.
After a birthday steak dinner for my dad at Texas Roadhouse we headed to his favorite STL bar and grill, Hot Shots. They have this shot there called the beer barrel. It's made out of beer and root beer schnapps... and it was only $2. Delicious and cheap... I'm sold!
Hot Shots in one word... FUN! Any place where you can toilet paper the bar and have beer pong tournaments is a place I would hang any day! The night went quite late... unfortunately my camera was quickly forgotten :( Hopefully I'll take more pics on our next STL roadtrip!

Yes! I'm sure Trent just wrote himself out of my parents' will by going to the brewery. Now it's all mine!!
ReplyDeleteSounds like fun! Sometimes those short weekend trips are the best ones! :)
