Deer Acres

The last day of our visit with cousins was full of fun at the Deer Acres Zoo. It was a cute little farm with lots of different animals that you could feed. The boys had fun throwing food to all the deer, goats, camels, chickens...

I think Jack's favorite part was definitely the Clifford.

Robert is such a big boy swinging!

Chuck E Cheese

Here are a few pictures from our time a Chuck E Cheese. You just never know how your day is going to turn out when you have 5 kiddos with you, but we did have fun.



Swimming...

I only have one picture from our swimming day. We went to the Alma Water Park which was really fun. There were several pools, a big water slide & a sprinkler section. It's hard to take a bunch of pictures when you're all wet. This day was crazy trying to keep 3 kiddos safe at the pool, Kate almost ate a bandaid but I scraped it out of her mouth before she swallowed it, and Robert barely escaped what could've been an unfortunate potty incident. So, lots to say, but not much to see.

The Nature Center

We visited the Nature Center one day, and this is a picture of the boys showing us their muscles. It was fun to experience the outdoors in the comfort of the indoor air conditioning. Robert's favorite part (and my least favorite) was the big rattlesnake. I did not take pictures of any of those...
There was a really cool indoor fishing pond. The stuffed fish had magnets in them, and the boys got to catch them with these fishing rods. Robert could've spent the whole day right here.
I liked this map of Arkansas.
Sic 'em bears!

On to Aunt Laura & Uncle B's

More fun for the boys on the playground!
Kate baby in the sink!
Caroline Jane...baby Janie! Julia Suzanne..baby Julia!
Robert brought his Spiderman costume for Jack to borrow since he loves Spidey so much. This became a nightly ritual before bedtime. Of course Robert couldn't be without a costume, so he insisted on wearing the too-small-for-him Elmo suit of Jack's.

Robert loved holding and feeding the babies! So cute!Under the tire swing.
This picture is hillarious! Kate looks like she was photo shopped in there!

So happy to see Daddy after he was gone for the weekend.
