Hi Ho, Hi Ho...it's off to Arkansas we go!

The last week in April we took a trip out to Arkansas to see Uncle Jerred, Aunt Tiffani, Jaxson and Jordin. It was wonderful! After a much longer than anticipated lay over in Denver, we finally made it to their place and had such a great time! The kids started playing together and loving each other right away. It was as if Jaxson and Joanna were never apart.
All the kids w/ their blankies...
Jaxson (3 1/2), Joanna (3 1/2), Jordin (22 mths) & Joy (14 mnths)
We got there on Thursday and Friday evening we all road tripped to St.Louis to meet Scott, Krista, Sara and Kelsey for the Cubs game that weekend.

What a fun time. We stayed in a great hotel with lots of shops and fun things to see. We went to Cardinal's stadium to cheer on the Cubs, rode the train to and from the game, went on some paddle boats at the hotel, and of course visited the Arch. It was a great weekend!

Steph & Krista w/ our girls - who knew that one day the girls would out number the boys??
All the kids did great with all the traveling. On the car ride home we stopped in MI and got to go for a ride through a cave, apparently the only ride through cave in the US. It was really neat and the kids even got to see a little bat hanging out in the cave. That was Joanna's favorite part, although she thought he should have been bigger. :) We got back to AR Sunday night and spent the next couple of days playing and enjoying being together.
Scrub-a-dub-dub, 4 kiddos in a tub! :)
We had to go home Wednesday. It was very hard, especially with Jaxson asking his dad, "Daddy, I go Ah Stephy?" So sweet. Thank you Uncle Jerred, Aunt Tiff, Jaxson and Jordi for a wonderful trip! We love and miss you guys!!

  1. Looks like you guys had a great trip! Did you make it to beaver lake? I've never been to a Cubs game, that must have been super fun! Maybe we can all go to the lake next summer with all the kiddos and Jerred & Tiff. It is SOOO fun!
