The Duff Family: In the arch

............................................................................................
I am a mother of three beautiful girls Breana, Giraldine, and Emilee. Married to a wonderful, supportive and very loving man. We also have two beautiful dogs named Sparkles and Joon. My husband is serving in the United States Army. Which makes me very proud of what he does for our country.
Traveling is one of the things we do most in the military. It has given us a chance to build wonderful lifelong friendships along the way. We hope that this blogger will help us keep close to those friends.
Aside from running my home daycare business, I devote my time to my family and Church. These are the two most important things in my life.

In the arch

In 1804 Lewis and Clark began the journey to the west. Many years later, the idea of the Gateway to the West was coined. The other day the family took a journey to the Gateway to the the West.

The very top of the arch stands 630 feet from the ground. Although we were pretty high up, the view below was spectacular.

Thanks to modern "zoom" buttons on cell phones, we got some pretty decent pictures. The green top building is the very old St. Louis court house and of course, the baseball field is a picture of Busch stadium.
