Arkansas trip

Well it has been 13 YEARS since I went to Arkansas to see my family. All of my Fathers siblings live there and so it was sooo great to see everyone. I have 3 cousins and a 2nd cousin I had never even met. Asher did GREAT on the planes. He never once cried and was so sweet and kept telling everyone "HI!" he did really well the whole trip, he had a couple of meltdowns but given all the new places and people I am surprised he did as well as he did. He loved being with all our cousins and having all the attention.

Here are pics from that trip

Asher thought flying was fun




He got his own seat from Memphis to Arkansas




My Aunt has 3 little dogs so he always had an audience when he was eating and he was not too sure how to feel about it



Steph and our cousin decided to mohawk the babies hair




And he was NOT very happy about it




He warmed up to the dogs




Every night we were there one of our family members had a dinner for the family. Here is Steph with Austin and our cousin Tory- the first night there Steph was so excited because these two took her out armidillo hunting....yep.




Asher having fun with cousins



here are Asher and Steph with cousins Paden, Jordan and Casey



The meeting of the minds



One day we went to go float around my Aunt and Uncles pool and it took Asher a little bit but then he LOVED it. He refused to wear his hat though so I had to slather sunscreen on his head and it took 4 times of washing his head for the sunscreen to come out...oh well he did not burn!



The girls! Steph and I had such a great time with my Aunt and our cousins- we shopped, we ate, we painted nails, we swam...does it get any better?




Cousin Shianne and Asher

Steph fell in love with Uncle Tims truck and tried to beg him to let her drive it



She was pretending he said yes......which he did not.




And now to leave you with this sweet picture....
