Family Time

A couple of weeks ago we got to go out to Arkansas to visit Josh's family. The kids had a ball and we had a really nice time being out there for Josh's birthday, meeting our new niece Chloe, and seeing family we haven't seen in years! Of course Paxton and Lorelei were thrilled to get to see Beau (Bo?) again! I tell you those two love puppies! Paxton really got along well with Beau and he was just adorable with him. I will let him enjoy that when he visits Nana and Papa, we aren't quite ready to take on any dogs here!

We started the trip off by walking over the Arkansas River over the big bridge with a walking trail. It was a long hot hike but pretty scenery, we were glad to have the double stroller with us! We visited the Little Rock Heifer Project Center, very interesting, the kids even liked parts of it, better yet, it was free! Nana and the kids made adorable Monkey cupcakes. They did such a great job making and decorating them and of course eating them!

Another day we headed out to see Josh's Aunt Anita and her family. Paxton got to jump on the trampoline while the sprinkler was going under it! Wow, let me tell you, if you haven't seen a kid having fun you should try this! Although his mama and Nana were about to have heart attacks the whole time! Paxton jumped with Jaden and Lorelei choose a non-dangerous activity, the swing set. So here are some pics from our trip there, I have more to come but blogger takes so long for me to upload that I can only do so much at a time.

So cute, right?

Ha! Love this one! My kiddos, especially one in particular, has seen a flying bug!



More loving on Beau

Choosing the swing set instead.


Some crazy fun, here! Don't you love the look on Nana's face! Trust me, I had the same look of fear that someone was going to end up with a broken bone.

Great pics! Next time you visit, you won't have to be afraid. David was doing jumps on our trampoline and it split right across the middle. So I bought one with a safety net. Hopefully next time we won't still live in a construction zone.
