Ghost Hunters

For New Years Eve my sister and I went Ghost Hunting!!! We looked up the most haunted places in St. Louis and we visited a few of them. It was pretty funny! So here is what we came up with, enjoy!

This is the Lemp Mansion, it is supposidly one of the most haunted buildings in St. Louis. Their have been reported electrical surges, cold spots, someone taping you on the shoulder (and no one is their). The piano even plays in the night with no one being present except a staff member. To read about the story go to http://www.legendsofamerica.com/MO-LempMansion.html




This picture is Roosevelt High School - Rumors of the school being built on a cemetery, the forth floor is off limits, when they built it, they did so over a cemetery and only moved the headstones. Bones surface on the football field and a grave collapsed in the front lawn and they had to fill it in. If you look close, it appears that a few people are sitting in the stands, waiting for a game!!! Another funny story to go with this, I was taking this picture and right across the street this guy was breaking into a car. He saw my camera and took off!!!

And this church just looked really creepy, I don't think it is haunted....then again....what is that in the window!!!

All I wanted for Christmas....I got!!!


This is one of my four nephews on the Sunday before Christmas. Can you tell I am a proud Aunt!!!! Anyway, it is January 1st of a new year, so I decided that since it seemed that everyone else in my family had a blog, I should too.
With the start of a new year brings the start of new resolutions and trying to live a "new" or better life. This got me to thinking about my past resolutions and failed attempts at loosing weight, being a better student, finding a different job, etc. This year I am determined to get my life at least one step closer to where I want it. Instead of continuing my long list of resolutions to the new year, I will resolve that if I can work towards all of the following and at least succed at one of them, then I won't be a failure. Even if it is just changing jobs. Anyway, I guess that is enough rambing for now. Hopefully more later.
