Delta Rivers Nature Center

Baby Gator!

There was a really cool lab they had set up where you could fell the animal skins, see what their skeletons look like, and all that good stuff.  Of course Makena spotted the alligator head right away.  We have "Gator Mania" at our house.  Even though Swamp People is not on right now, Troy Landry will be at Mack's Prairie Wings on Sun. October 2 and The Mungers will be there!

Interested in poop anyone?!  My kids were!
This was a pretty cool airplane simulator.

My bunch watching the movie during our "plane ride".
Another cool thing we saw today:  In the movie we flew over all the
Nature Centers in the state of AR.  Imagine our surprise when our first stop
took us right over our house to the Potlach Conservation Center at Cooks Lake!!
You could see our house and "hood" perfectly, right down to my car!

If you're ever in Southeast Arkansas I would highly recommend the Gov. Mike Huckabee Delta Rivers Nature Center.  It was awesome.  I think we stayed there for almost two hours.  The kids are at the age now where they have longer attention spans, so we are able to stay and really look at things more than before.  The trail that we walked was great too.  Very serene and pretty.  It was a great family day and I'm so happy that Carl wasn't working so he could go with us :)

Three Doses of Happiness

Laundry piled up, dishes in the sink, phone buzzing with many emails, toys all over the house.......sounds like an absolute perfect time to go outside and relax with my kiddos! Today has been a VERY warm day.  It probably would be more enjoyable if we didn't know that it would more than likely storm tonight!  Carlie didn't go to school today because she was up a lot last night with stomach issues.  She never vomited, but she was very nauseated and has had stomach cramps.  She hasn't felt bad all day, just off and one.  We might be going to the doctor tomorrow p.m. because Sunday night I noticed that she has a little bulge above her belly button, I wasn't concerned about it (really) until her stomach started hurting and she said that it hurt to tough.  Maybe it's nothing, but people keep mentioning hernia to me.  Please pray that she feels better soon.  Also tomorrow is the big day....academic advising.  I remember the very first time I was advised (somewhere a
