Chicot State Park Fishing Trip

Pop Pop and JuJu rented a cabin in
Chicot State park for a few days last week.
The cabin was really nice... we love
"glamping"! Pop Pop had his boat there
as well which the kids loved.  We were
also able to spend time with Uncle Jake,
Cousin Jackson, Ms. Taylor, and Brynlee.

We had such a great time and are looking
forward to our next stay there.  Hopefully Daddy
will be able to join us next time!

Avery's First Dance Recital!

Aunt Hollie and I have been anxiously
awaiting this day since the girls started
dance in 2013.  Last year we opted to
not participate in the recital due to it
being the girls first year in dance and that
they were only 2.  BUT this year we
knew they were going to dance on the
BIG stage!! We are so proud of how
they danced! We can't wait to do it
again next year!

It's VBS time!

We have all be anxiously awaiting VBS
at our church.  I made a last minute
decision to make them some shirts and it
was a hit with some of our friends so all
the money from the shirts went to the
penny competition that is going on between
the girls and the boys.  We almost
wiped out the bank with our $50 in pennies!
To be fair I divided the rolls between the girls
and the boys so I'm not sure who we helped
but the boys did when at the end of that day.
3 more days to go!

Aaron's best bud Jackson joined us again
this year! His little sister Rebecca joined us
this year as well... this was her first year
and Avery's first too! 

I am helping but with the 2 year olds so I
didn't get any pictures of activities. 

Our "Ninja" Turtle

Paw Paw found a turtle in the woods and
gave him to Aaron.  Aaron named him
"Ninja" and took him to school to show
his class. We did release him back into the
wild though. 

On the way to Disney!

Our driving vacation tradition is to buy
a huge bag of Laffy Taffy to enjoy on the way.
It is our favorite kind but we all like the yellow
the best and there just isn't enough in one
bag to go around! I bought several dollar
store activities for them to work on during the
drive and they both really enjoyed them.  However
the did ALL of them on the way there so they
had none to do on the way home. 

Just Avery

Here are a few cell phone photos of my Avery
girl before we left on vacation.   We enjoyed
a trip to the splash park and a morning at the
zoo with just her and mommy.  We were
both ready for school to be out so that Aaron
will be able to join us on outings.

Disney Vacation 2015

We had a fantastic 5 days at Disney
last week.  The weather was hot but
we had a blast.  This trip we introduced
the kids to pin trading and they LOVED
it.  Besides looking in EVERY gift shop
we saw their next favorite thing to do was
trading their pins.

This trip Aaron's favorite ride was
the new Seven Dwarfs Mine Train

Avery's favorite was Dumbo

As with after every trip to the world,
Aaron and I are already planning our
next one! I think we might try fall season
next go round! 

Vacation viewed from Aaron's Camera

As with each vacation since receiving his very own camera
in 2013... Here are a few (he actually filled his entire
memory card) of his pictures.  I have always loved to view
the pictures after we get home to see what he found interesting
enough to take a picture of.  These were a few of my favorite.

I think it is interesting to note that several were of himself--
guess he will officially be a part of the "selfie" generation.

School's out for summer!!
