On Labor Day my Mom, Dad, and I took the kids toThe Arkansas Post Museum in Gillett. Carl is still working hard (but if the rain holds off they'll be done with rice by Wed.!) and couldn't be off with us today, but we had a great time with Nanny and Pop anyway! We had lunch in the picnic area and the kids loved it. After we left there we headed to the visitor center where they have all kinds of exhibits and even a movie theater. It is very educational, but fun also. So after we finished up in the visitor center, we went on a hike by the river and that's when we had a few melt-downs (Carlie of all people), got a little hot, and couldn't wait to get back to the truck!! It was a really nice hike if you don't count all of that!! Makena really enjoyed herself until the very end when she was worn out from walking :) We also went to the actual museum part where they have a lot of really old, interesting things.
We attempted to go swimming today, but the water was sooo cold we only stayed for about 40 minutes, then we had to come home and get ready for a fish fry at Grammy and Papa's. The fish was good and we got to visit with family that we don't get to see very often. Over all we had a great day and got to spend it with some pretty special people :)
Tomorrow is my first day of working as Mother Helper at the girls school this year and tomorrow night I have Ladies Bible Study, so it's going to be a very busy day.
Oh, I called her this morning, but I need to send a big Happy Birthday to my mother-in-law, Mrs. Carolyn!!
Well, hope you all have had a great weekend and are ready to start a 4 day work week!!
