Spring Break Camping

Chris and I have really need some time together and some time away from our home and our jobs. We also really wanted to see our family in Arkansas so we got a 2 for 1 deal.

We camped at Brady Mountain @ Lake Ouchita in Arkansas.

We were able to see his adorable little cousins play basketball, it was so much fun to see them play. Then we got to go into town and have lunch with both his sides of the family, can we say FOOD OVERLOAD! Oh but it was good.

We had a really great time and needless to say we did not want to come back home! Oh and George and Grace had a great time too, especially playing in the lake with their frisby's. Can we say more please!!!

Time for some cheering up!

My phone rang early Monday morning on March 9th and I knew something was wrong. My mom doesn't call me from California at 6 in the morning Texas time just to chat. My wonderful and dear Great Aunt Rosie had passed away earlier that morning.

She was more than just a great aunt to say the least and I miss her very much. I was having a very rough day and Chris stayed with me through it all. Later that afternoon he decided it would be best to get me out of the house for a little while and I finally agreed.

Chris took me to Cabela's and we enjoyed a good afternoon together and it helped me to stop the crying (hense the glasses below :( ) at least for a little while.

All that knew her were blessed by her loving, kind and giving spirit. I miss her everyday but I know she is rejoicing in heaven with her husband.

A Fine Day for a Picnic

Ok so I'm a little slow at uploading picutres and blogging. I end up doing it all at once.

Well Chris and I have been enjoying our nice backyard with the dogs and he finally got a Saturday off of work and we decided to have some friends over for a BBQ.

It was a little windy but we played croquet and ate hot dogs and hamburgers. It was so much fun to have little ones around too! I think Chris and I both have a lot to learn before we have kids!

After awhile we went inside and played some games. Oh how I love Apples to Apples! It's so much fun, especially with a good group of friends.

All to say we had a wonderful BBQ Saturday, although it was a couple weeks ago now!! :)
