Dylan gets Another Trophey
Dylan's baseball team was finally able to get together this past Saturday so that they could get their trophies! We all met at Put-Put Golf and Games for a pizza party! They kids ate pizza and ice cream and ten played in the arcade. It was 100 degrees outside so no one was up to a game of miniature golf but they did go for the bumper boat ride! The kids had a great season and it was fun getting to see everyone again. Now baseball is over until next spring.... time for soccer! (Sign ups are in a couple weeks!)

Hot Springs Trip 7/2008
We went to Hot Springs last Wednesday for a Family Reunion/Grandma Linnie's birthday party/Fourth of July/meet baby Johnny/canoe trip extravaganza!
On Wednesday we got to meet our cousin Eric's (from Vegas/formally from Hot Springs) new baby- Johnny Dale! He was only a couple months old but he was so precious! We also got to meet his sweet mom, Debbie (we really liked her!!). We spent the afternoon exploring downtown Hot Springs with them, Ben, Becky, and Jim. It was fun to catch up with everyone. O, and Dylan lost a tooth (thanks to cousin Ben!). This was tooth #5!
Thursday was spent out on Lake Ouachita. Uncle Jim used his boat to ferry us all out to our own private island. We sat up lunch (thanks to Aunt Becky!) and spent the day swimming, playing in the sun, tubing/skiing behind the boat, and having a ton of fun! Chris' family from Fl were also there! Its been a long time since we got to hang with both the AR and the FL cousins! So much fun! Thursday night all of us cousins went out for a night on the town. What a blast!
Friday was Grandma Linnie's and Great Aunt Winnie's (they're twins) birthday celebration. Chris and Jim worked all day to cook some amazing ribs! All the family came over to Jim and Becky's. There must have been 60 people in all! That night we all watched the kids (by kids I mean Chris and his cousins LOL) shoot off fireworks! It was a fun day for sure.
Saturday was the big canoe trip! We had been looking forward to this all spring! There was 22 of us (11 canoes!). We went down the Caddo River. The river was slow so there was a lot of work involved but we all had tons of fun.
Sunday it was time to load up and say or goodbyes. Eric, Debbie, Benm and Johnny were heading back to Las Vegas. Dan, Linda, Forrest, April, Teresa, Kevin, and Emily were headed back to Florida. It was so nice to have this time amongst family we don't get to see as much as we wished. But before we left...Dylan lost tooth #6 (with Ben's help once again!!). Two teeth in one week-the Tooth Fairy will be broke real soon at this rate!
