Arkansas


We spent Thanksgiving in Arkansas and it was glorious!  The weather was perfect, sunny and lots of family fun, we are so blessed and thankful.


Grammy and Veronica during our Cawein family hike on Petit Jean. 



Cave on Petit Jean; we spent a lot of time in this cave exploring and looking for Bear tracks...

David and Maddie in the cave. 

A rare photo of the happy couple, David and Tina

Maddie and Doc enjoying the view on Petit Jean.



8 of the 10 Cawein Cousins.  It sure is fun when this crew gets together!

The Pfeifers atop Petit Jean.

It is hard to see, but if you look closely in the windows, you will see Maddie, Mary Ella and Maramarie still enjoying Petit Jean.


Faye rock climbing on Petit Jean. 
Faye, Doc, ME, V, Maddie and Maramaire "working" in Grammy's office.  We also ALL visited Grammy between classes, gave her students (future teachers) something to look forward to:)

David, Faye, Kiki and Big Jack

Faye and Kiki on the swings

Faye has perfected the monkey bars.  She makes it look easy.  Have you tried them lately, they are not easy. 

Maddie, always finds the swings. 

Just a swingin'  This park is in the school across from my parents house, the house I grew up in. I played on this playground for years and it is fun to see my kids play in it, too.  There is no photo, but David and I played teatherball and I still got it, I killed him! 

Philip, Stephen, Maddie, Tina, David, Lawson, Faye and Big Daddy (taking the pic) at the firepit.

6 of the 7 cousins just hanging out on the tracks...when in the south.  The kids placed some coins on the tracks and if a train ever comes the kids will learn what happens to them:)

Faye and Stephen just cruisin' 

Car races, Maddie is in the pink car and Faye is in the jeep.
