The Parker's Place for Memories!: Visit to Arkansas

We just got home a few hours ago from Mountain Home. It was a long drive today and I can’t believe I’m on the computer posting instead of putting things away and getting ready for the work week ahead. But I want to make sure it gets done so here we go! :)

We left on Thursday at about 1:45. Got to Pa-Pa’s house at about 9:45. Grayson did really well on our way up until the very last hour or so. He was just ready to be out of his car seat!

Friday we went to Branson with Trent’s dad and brother, Seth. They wanted to show us the new shopping area downtown by Lake Taneycomo. It was really nice! But it was extremely HOT!!!

We walked along the path and came across a water show set to the song “Kung Foo Fighting”..it was really neat!

Fire came out of those black pipes and we could feel the heat!!!

Next, we headed here for lunch….it was yummy!!!

As we walked back to the car we stopped for pictures by the lake…it was a very pretty area!!!

When we got back to Mountain Home, we spent the evening over at Pa-Pa’s house.

Here is Grayson with his Mam-Maw

And here he is with his Great Grandpa

He’s such a little cutie!!!

Look at his little “tush”…so cute!!

Saturday we got up early and drove to Lake Norfork to snap a few pics of the pretty scenery & us of course!

Later that afternoon we went with Mam-Maw to El Chico and then got a yummy Blizzard from DQ and went back to Pa-Pa’s place. Grayson LOVED going for rides on Pa-Pa’s chair. We sat outside for a little bit until the rain started coming down!

The city was throwing a RED, WHITE & BLUE Festival up at the college and a Firework show was scheduled for the evening, so we drove up the road and sat where we could see them. Grayson was staring in amazement at first but quickly fell asleep! He was TIRED!! :)

We headed back home this morning at 9am. Pulled in the drive at 4:40pm. Look who I had the pleasure of sitting next to all the way home! My doll baby!
