we headed to arkansas on friday afternoon and it was quite the trip! miss avery did not think she needed to be in her carseat for that long! the trip included a stop for over an hour at the chick-fil-a playground in lufkin as well as an extended stop at a gas station south of texarkana. we were starting to wonder if we’d ever get there! what is usually a 6-6.5 hour drive turned into a 10.5 hour drive – ahhhhh…travelling with kids :)
the next day, we headed to ma mae’s (my great-grandma) to visit for awhile. evan and avery kept us all entertained but it must have been a little much for miss thing because she crashed on her vanpa towards the end of our visit.
after naps at grannie annie’s house, we headed outside for a little tractor riding:) avery got right on while we had to force evan to ride at first. 30 minutes later, he didnt want to get off:)
a little avery photo shoot… 
some horse petting…
back to the tractor… 
and going to see the horsies & cow once more… 
after playing outside for awhile, we headed inside for a yummy dinner grannie annie made for us! love me some grannie annie food :)
we had a great time just hanging out and chatting and the kiddos got to open an early pressie from the arkansas millers – avery got a cabbage patch boy doll and a baby block puzzle game and evan got a remote controlled bulldozer (they are both in love!).
the next morning we headed to church, ate lunch, and then packed up and headed out. the drive home was MUCH better than the drive up and both kiddos did amazingly well – thank goodness!!
we are so glad we were finally able to make it up to visit and can’t wait to see the arkansas clan again soon!!
