The Natural State

Here it is! The 2nd installment of our summer vacation - Arkansas.

Bob was so happy to return home and show off his son to all of his friends and family! This was an extra special visit because not only did we visit Grandma Amy, Jerry (who influenced this trip by deciding to finally tie the knot!) & Great Grandma, but Aunt Goldie & Cousin Dalton were also visiting from Alaska, Aunt Tina & Tanya were visiting from Kansas and Grandpa Bob was home instead of out & about flying C130s! It was a jamboree of family!

Sneaking a taste of the cake

Just like his Daddy! Bob's mom use to be in the specialty cake business (Bob still brags about an R2D2 birthday cake) and along with his sister and grandma they all have stories of their little Bobby climbing the kitchen drawers to get his fingers into the cake for a taste of frosting!

Yummy, Cherry Limeade from Sonic! A special treat when we're down south

We were so glad we got to see our good friends Gabe & Leslie
