Kids behind bars.

Some of you may have already seen this picture on Aaron's facebook, but I wanted to put it here. This is one more (I promise!) from our outing at the Historical Museum.

Don't say I didn't warn you...

Last Saturday we went to a Territorial Fair at the Historic Arkansas Museum. So here are a few pictures from our little outing. When the kids found out where we were going they had to wear their cowboy hats and boots. They really had a great time, and the people there were so friendly and fun. I know Aaron Job was really the only one who understood the history behind it and the houses, but the little ones still loves exploring the place. So here we go...

As soon as you walked in, this guy was playing the fiddle, so they had to stop and dance. Yes, right by the front door.


Ava dressed up in prairie clothes again.




Playing "Arkansas Twister"




Making Mother's Day cards. Abby looks like she wasn't enjoying it, but she really was!

Here, they are making dolls out of corn husks and yarn.




Looks like Aaron Job doesn't want to get too close to this guy!




The kids had a lot of fun with these guys. They were playing music and doing some clog dancing, so the kids joined in with them too, and gave everyone a show.
Abby and Aaron Job taking a break.



Whitewashing the fence with Tom Sawyer




More music. The guy in the middle looks a little scary, but he really wasn't!







Anna letting her horse eat some grass




Plum' tuckered out! (as we say in the South!)

And a good time was had by all.

For Mother's Day, I got a new baby....

Isn't she beautiful!


Now, my birthday is next week, so this will be my birthday/anniversary/Christmas/Groundhog Day/year 2008 present. But that's okay, I was so surprised!! I've taken SO many pictures with this thing, that I could post one-a-day for a year, and still not post all the ones I've taken in two days! So, for kicks, here's one, (or ahem... four) for now, but more....oh, so many more to come!


Killer eyes!!


I just thought these were cute too. I played with the color (obviously) in the cowgirl pic.

And, I was starting to feel partial to one child, so I put a picture of Ava up too!

Readers beware, if you hate looking at blogs with pictures of kids, or you're looking for a blog with real depth and content, over the next few days, this isn't the blog for you (not that it ever was!) Thanks for indulging me for a bit!
