The Big 4-0!

We celebrated Eric's 40th birthday last night. The kids had so much fun decorating the house and making him a Dr Pepper cake. We got him an iPad but sad it did not arrive in time for his birthday.

7 Months

Catherine is already 7 months old! Above is an 18 second video of her crawling. She started the army crawl a few weeks ago and cut her 1st tooth. She is now full speed and into EVERYTHING!

Ice Age Mammals

The kids enjoyed the new Ice Age Exhibit at the Heard Museum.
They had a great time with Nana and Papa.

Surviving The Texas Heat

Getting wet is the only way to survive in this Texas heat!
We made an impromptu visit to a local splash park so we could cool off a bit. Afterward, they were able to play tennis.
The kids thought it was the greatest thing ever getting wet in their clothes!
Catherine could have sat here all day.

Ranger Game

Eric got great seats and took William to the Ranger game last night. William was so excited to hang with just daddy. The rest of us enjoyed being boyless and had a fun girly girl night! :-)

Branson, Missouri

After our Arkansas adventures we took the kids to Branson for a couple of days. Above picture of us at the Branson Variety Theatre waiting to see a Broadway show. It was really good.
The kids loved Dick's 5 and 10! They got lots of souvenirs!

White River

We took the kids to the White River in Northern Arkansas for 3 nights/4 days. Our GPS and iPhone were not able to pinpoint the address of our guesthouse so we started our vacation lost on a dirt road in the middle of the Ozark Mountains!

The stairs from our guesthouse down to the White River.

We took a sunset boat cruise on Bull Shoals Lake.
William was so excited to drive the boat.
Catherine getting the marshmallows ready for our S'mores. The kids also had fun hiking, fishing, swimming, playing washers, riding a 4 wheeler, feeding fish off the dock and catching lightning bugs.
