Hermosa Beach and Disney Land

A couple of weeks ago Collin and Becka came to Arkansas for 10 days for both of their high school reunions. Since they were here---their place a couple blocks off the beach and 30 mins from Disney Land was available! Allegiant Airline had $39 non-stop flights so how could we resist---we took Henry and Ellie to Disney Land!!
Lucy and Hunt didn't get to make the trip....but they will soon!
We had so much fun! We all LOVE Hermosa Beach---it is such a neat little beach town!
Nappin on the plane!
The view from Collin and Becka's---you can see the water!

We brought them a Razorback flag to hang outside their home!

They look like they belong in CA!

TRIKES, BLUES, AND BBQ

During Bikes, Blues, and BBQ week in Fayetteville Henry's school had Trikes, Blues, and BBQ!
They dressed like bikers, had BBQ (hot dogs), and a "real biker" brought his Harley and talked ot them about bike safety. Then they had a parade on their trikes! It was really cute!

Henry and his biker chick---Ellie!

Having a snack and listening about bike safety.

Henry's teachers---Miss Noi and Miss Danette
Getting ready to for the Rally
They actually covered Trikes, Blues, and BBQ on the news and Henry was on TV!
He LOVES watching it----he rewinds it over and over!

LUCY at Soccer!

Lucy has been having fun watching Henry's soccer!
She would like to be out there with them.
This was the day of the Arkansas vs Georgia game.

Picnic and Snowcones

After church a few weekends ago, the weather was PERFECT so I let them play outside while I fixed us a picnic lunch. First I TRIED to get a picture of them in their church clothes but was not successful! That afternoon we made snowcones in Henry's Snoopy snowcone maker! That snowcone maker is a lot harder than I remembered!! But they were good!

Soccer

Henry is doing First Touch Soccer this year.
He is having a great time and is really pretty good!!



They give them like 4 water breaks in a 45 minute period! Pretty funny!

Rain, Rain, and MORE RAIN!!!

We have been having lots of rainy days lately. We are really missing the sun!
Wednesday night after church we drove through and got ice cream and then when we got home Henry and Lucy decided to play in the rain on their bikes.
Lucy got her ice cream all over her and she loved it!
Henry ate his in the car but I made Lucy wait until we got home----which obviously was a good idea!
