Saturday morning

We love living in Fayetteville! The pace of life, the people, the places...Saturday mornings are especially enjoyable! There are so many great local breakfast joints. We began this morning at Penguin Ed's. Below Luci is posing with Home Frie, Penguin Ed's latest addition to their collection.





Then we headed to the Farmer's Market...love that place! Happy Saturday all!

Weekend at Big Flat


We haven't spent near enough time at Dad and Mom's farm at Big Flat. We decided it was about time we spend a weekend there and even though the river is unbelievably low for the first of June, we decided we needed a canoe trip as well!

We left Friday night and Luci got to experience cotton candy for the first time at dinner!


After consuming more sugar than usual we continued on our way and was Luci ever wound up when we got there!!! We arrived a few minutes before Dad and Mom so Luci welcomed them to their own home by leaping, screaming, and cheering in the driveway.


The next morning we loaded up the boats and headed to the river. We played in the water LOTS and Luci took turns riding in different boats. We always have a blast on the river!

Waiting for Daddy and Grandpa to get back from shuttling vehicles so we can head down river!

We ended the day with some homemade ice cream back at the farm. Another great trip!!!

Summa-time!!


Have I mentioned just how much I LOVE summer time??!!!

Take today for example...Luci and I headed to Crystal Bridges Museum for their monthly preschool play date. What fun!!! The museum had loads of activities just for kiddos 5 and under! Luci painted, hula-hooped, played parachute games, sang songs, and explored the museum grounds without being told not to touch! How much better can it get?! We ended the hot afternoon with a sno-cone. Pretty awesome summer day, if you ask Luci and me!!!!

Hope your summer is at least half this awesome!
