Fun with Uncle Mike and Connie

Connie and Mike drove over from Memphis to spend the weekend with us over Labor Day.  We went to the Bentonville Farmer's Market and walked around, then went to Beaver Lake to swim and fish, walked around the outdoor shopping mall in Rogers (next to Bentonville) and ate LOTS of yogurt at YUM YUM's!  We had lots of fun and were really glad to have family come visit us in Northwest Arkansas! :)

 

Jackson and the Broncos

This is Jackson's first year of tackle football.  Needless to say - the kid is in heaven.  They have him at defensive back/cornerback.  He is playing with 6th and 7th graders...some of those 7th graders are big boys!  Kind of scary to see him going after these kids.  He loves it though!

Paris and Her Soccer Team

Thought I would post a few pictures of Paris playing soccer.  She has been so excited to be able to participate in a "team" sport.  Her coach is nice and does a great job with the girls.  She is having fun and learning lots!

The Move to Arkansas

Just a few images of the move and the flight to Northwest Arkansas.  Even a few pics of our movers.  That was a tough weekend.  We loved our time in Ohio and will really miss the close friendships we made along the way.

 

ARKANSAS or BUST!

We are starting our new adventure.  I packed my car and left Lewis Center yesterday around noon, getting me in Bentonville, Arkansas at midnight last night.  Lots of emotions as I drove - thinking about friends, relationships formed what we are leaving behind, what we are gaining...the list goes on and on.  We will miss so many things about "the Ohio."  It has been a great place for us and we hope that are new new in Arkansas will be the same!  I have attached a few pics from my trip yesterday!

Tyler Turns 14!

Wow!  I can't believe how quickly time flies.  Seems like yesterday she was this little thing with a big set of lungs, squaking when anyone held her (except for Heidi of course).  My solution to the crying:  Bob Marley.  Seemed to work all the time.  Now she is 14, finishing 8th grade, going into 9th, singing solos, doing great in school, and such a tremendous example to her family and friends.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TYLER!
