June Trip

Not only did we have visitors in June....we were also visitors because we made a trip back to AR to visit family and friends. Spent the first two days with the Jobe Family.  We were able to go see the new Crystal Bridges Museum in Bentonville, which was amazing.  Then the next day went way too quickly as we were visiting our old neighborhood, friends and fit in a couple playdates, a lunch and a dinner with friends.

Then to Harrison.  Highlights at the Martins were meeting Maddie (their new precious puppy) & Ben letting Kyle shave his hair to a buzz cut. (first time ever!) I also  got to see my Mom each day (very sad that the dementia is worse and there is no conversation anymore as she just repeats the same word) but I do think she knew us and seemed happy. Spent some time with Grandparents, cousins, aunts, uncles, friends and ended the week at the Still Family Farm.  All the good cooking and hospitality this week....I think I gained 10 lbs!
Meeting Mattie..she loves playing in the monkey grass!

And on the way home we got to stop in TN for the night and spend some time with Ben & Rachel's favorite preschool teacher (Mrs. Rebecca) and the kids had lots of fun with her grandson (Grant).  Then the next day we all went to downtown Franklin and had lunch and shopped around for a little bit before heading home.  Can't wait to go back!
