Arkansas---Day 2

Once again, I started this post last week, and I am finishing it on Sunday. I hope everyone has had a good weekend. The following pictures are of us last weekend in Arkansas. Hope you enjoy!




Cooper and Maw Trish talking each other in to ride the big water ride.
Please be sure and notice how wet Maw Trish's clothes are after the water ride!

Cooper getting wet from the big water slide.

Cooper was not big enough to drive, but he got to anyway.

Evie resting!
Cooper making sure with Paw Dave that the ride did not go fast. Little did Paw Dave know that the ride did go fast and up and down many times. Paw Dave was just as scared as Cooper. We actually paid $10 for the picture that the ride took of their faces coming down one the roller coaster hills. It is too funny! I will try to scan it in. They were both holding on for dear life. The picture below is from the same ride, and the people behind them were laughing so hard at them!




The pictures above are from Andy and Brandon having a little competition.
Evie Ann did not like the cold water.

So, she decided to lay out.
Boy Mom, I can't believe that you are taking my picture when I am sweating like a chunky monkey!
Evie and Big B laying out by the pool!
Cooper talking himself into sliding.


I have a few more pictures to post, so I will try to soon!

Arkansas---Day 1


This was Cooper on the Saturday morning boat ride. he was a little excited to say the least. It was very cloudy and cool on this morning. Yes, E bought him Ferris Bueller shades, and he loved them. He is about the only four year old that I know who wears shades all day, just like an adult.

He only tossed about 1,000 rocks into the lake on Saturday. That was his favorite thing to do.

Cooper testing out the cold water.

Cooper n Dad testing the water out.

Nar-Nar, Cooper and John on the boat. Nar-Nar has a broken heart in this picture, cause Cooper told her the night before that he found a girlfriend his size. Nar-Nar has always been Coop's girlfriend. Yes, she is his aunt, but hey, we were in Arkansas this weekend. She knew the day would come, but she did not take it well at all.

Paw Dave, Maw Trish, and Evie on the boat. Evie is under the towel.

Bub is so cool, just ask him.

We had a little ran delay, so we all just hung out for a while on the extra large deck at the cabin. Andy decided to wear E's shades. Just call him Mr. Maffia Wife.
By the way, our cabin was great. It had a huge deck on the back with a hot tub. The bedrooms were so nice, and the living room area was great.

Cooper did a little entertaining during the rain delay by dancing for everyone. He has a lot of shaking of his behind when he dances, as you can see.

Sun out, Dad and Cooper enjoying the water.

Cooper's favorite sign that he and Paw Dave love to do.

All I can say is...STUDS! They are probably neither one telling the truth.



Rock throwing game

Me and Andy on Big Bertha, the tube. Cooper was really nervous for me to do this. Myles was driving which made me nervous. After I got off, Andy would stand up on his knees on the tube trying to brag to Myles that he could not toss him off the tube. This of course created a game for my competitive brother, so then Andy got tossed off twice.


E and Brandon on Big Bertha.


Notice the tongue, how gross.

My baby trying to get on top of the deck of the boat.


Cooper's fort on the boat.


Can you tell the difference in the two pictures above? That's correct, Cooper has a $36 hat from the marina. He saw this hat at lunch this day, and he wanted it so bad cause it had a string on it. So, I told him that he could have it if he ate all of his lunch. Little did I know what the price was.

And last but not least Ms. Diva in her bikini. Don't hate her cause you aint her.
Evie with her series look! She enjoyed the boat, but she liked to go fast. I think that she is going to be a dare devil like Nar-Nar. Cooper is more like me, not a dare devil, but Evie is going to be the exact opposite.


Cooper finally gave it up that afternoon. He had a great day, and he loved every minute of it. I will post pictures tomorrow from Majic Springs trip on Sunday. Cooper is at school today, and Evie is at Ms. Stella's house. Cooper still loves school, mostly the girls at school. I have never seen a 4 year old be so girl crazy. I hope everyone's week is going great. I am off next week, so I plan on getting lots of things done. Till next time.
