Family Fun!! :)

Our trip to Arkansas to see the Sedricks was so much fun.
We went to Pea Ridge, a Civil War site. I was surprised the kids really like this.
We went to the Terra Studios, where we watched them make these bluebirds of happiness. We also met the Trash Troll.now which one was it??????




Goldilocks and a bear? or is it 2 bears? Seriously this place had so many cool things. Lots of little pottery all over a labryinth and look who we met. It's George, Myrtle and Hubert. Not my cousins! :)
We visited a working mill. It was really cool. I would love to buy my grains from a place like this all the time. Probably couldn't afford it, but I would like it. It has a working water wheel and everything. It was great.




We went boating. We had so much fun. Everyone tried wakeboarding. We had a great time.

All the kids loved the tube.
Look and see--
They start----and

-----and then they crash.
Here is Josh Wakeboarding--doesn't he look awesome

Adam had gotten up the last time, but struggled on this day to get up. I missed the pictures the 1st time he went. Oh well.

Sammi and Mason on the tube. They all had so much fun. The water was so warm.
This is one of their favorite things to do.


This photo does have a story. It's somewhere in Wyoming. We let LOLA(we named the GPS in the car ;) ) take us wherever she wanted. She did wonderfully in Kansas City. We didn't take 1 wrong turn. But for some reason she didn't want us to go to Rock Springs--so this was her back road--absolutely nothing was out here. Just 20 miles of dirt road and wind. We were to take a turn off ---off of this road, but it had washed out. Hmmmm--there was a new one we had past, so we turned around and took the new road. Our children, thought we were lost. We knew where we were and where we needed to go, so no big deal. We just chalked it up to adventrue and laughed.

Thanks Sean and Holly. We appreciate your hospitality. We had a great time. You guys are the best. Great job in getting Ivan to take us. :)
