Spring Break 2012

Since Kelly, Kali and I all had Spring Break the same week (nice huh!) and C Rhoades was in town for the week we decided we were going to board the dogs here by the house and then go home to Arkansas to visit everyone. Presley and I left on Friday and went to Rogers and Kelly, Kali and C Rhoades head to the Fort.

Someone found the stairs! Since we don't have stairs in our house, she doesn't get the chance to play on them like every kid loves to do!

No matter how many times I pulled her from them, she was bound and determined to master them before we left. She made it to the 2nd step and then would scream because she didn't know how to get down.

I found one of my old Barrett's (pronounced BAR-ret) hee hee, and wanted to see if Miss Thing had enough hair yet to hold it...sure enough! Now as you can tell how times have changed because this itty bitty little thing was what everyone was wearing (back in the day) and now a days, the bows need to be bigger than the child's head!

side note: please only pay attention to the cute little girl with the precious little Barrett in her hair, and NOT to her mother who is wearing one of the many National Guard t-shirts she owns (all the exact same!) 

What is spring break at Bubka's house without chewin on some corn on the cob? She loved it! She carried that corn on the cob around all night.

See what all that chewin does to a girl!

After a few days of hanging out with Bubka, Grandpa and Auntie Annye, we head down to the Fort to meet up with Dad, Kali and everyone else.

Trips to see Gina Barrina are getting to be so much fun. Now that Presley is more mobile and likes to interact with other kids more her size, she is all about it.

Love these two!

Gwen had to work during the week while we were there so I told her to leave G-Money Cornbread home with us so we could run out to the campsite to see Nanny and Papa and this is how I caught him....how peaceful and sweet is this! Just want to go snuggle with this little guy.

Kali getting ready to head down to the boat with the guys to try and catch something! It was sprinkling off and on and kinda chilly but that wasn't going to stop this little one from hanging out with the boys.

Papa, Kelly, Kali and Chris trying to catch dinner...ok just kidding about the whole dinner thing but seriously trying to catch something!

Chris caught a small bass

Back at Uncle Kendall's and Aunt Gawen's Presley was setting up post in front of the tv so she didn't miss an episode of Dora!

Poor Lily! She has the most concerned look on her face..

A little wrestle time with big cousin Garrett!

"Look Mom, I can reach these things that when I push them, they make noise!" Once she found that, she was all about makin some music for anyone who would listen.

Gwen and Gina were mine and Presley's lunch date to La Huerta's one day for some chip and salsa! It was so yummy. Of course the weather was beautiful so we sat out on the patio and the girls and Garrett played around. It was perfect. Great food, great company and we were outside so I didn't worry about Presley having a freak out. I just put her on the ground and let her crawl around.

She even got to try a chip! I think she like crushing them up in a million pieces more than she enjoyed actually eating them!

After lunch we took the kids out to the campsite because Nanny and Papa were having a cookout. We took the kids down to the little park they have there and let them swing on the swings and run off some energy. Presley was more about the recycled tire pieces and how they felt and tasted than she was about anything else.

goofy!

We all had such a great spring break that it was so hard coming home and getting back into normal life routine again. But then again after being gone for a week, it was nice to be back home, with my own dogs, in my own bed with my own family!
