Happy Birthday to Andrew!

Tomorrow is Andrew's birthday, but we're celebrating all weekend! His parents and sister are coming to visit us for the first time and we are very excited! I'm sure there will be many pictures to post on Monday!

To great friends...

Wow, what a great weekend! Amanda and Sterling came to Little Rock and we had so much fun. We went to Cajun's on Friday and the Riverfest on Saturday. We finally made it to see One Republic that night. We grilled out on Sunday, and just enjoyed the day. Andrew and I are getting used to life outside of Starkville, but we are reminded everytime we see our friends how great they are and how much we miss them!

Almost the weekend!

I'm so ready for this weekend to be here! I've thought it was Friday all day, but then I discovered I have one more day to go... This weekend is Riverfest in Little Rock. From everything I've heard, it should be alot of fun. I'm also excited that Amanda and Sterling are coming to stay with us for the long weekend. We haven't seen them in about a month now, and this is the first time for them to come to our place. I'm sure there will be lots of pictures next week:)

A day at the Zoo!

I love 1/2 days!

Every other week, Andrew gets a 1/2 day off during the week. We always try to pick the day with the best weather (which has been challenging lately) and just go play for the afternoon. When we lived in Starkville, we always went driving around, listening to music on Friday afternoons. It was a great way to relax. That's what we try to do now, even though we usually have things we have to do in our free time. Today was a great half day. We decided to try to be green, at least a little. We dropped off all of our recycling and bought 2 tomato plants and a pepper plant. I'm not sure how they are going to work out on our patio, but we're trying to grow a little of our own food!





After that was taken care of, we went in search of some good pictures of the area. We took these under one of the Arkansas River bridges.

Just another weekend of fun!

Andrew and I went to another Travelers game Friday night with our neighbors. The night games are a lot more fun!


Saturday afternoon we went to the Toad Suck Festival in Conway, Ar. (Yes, I said Toad Suck and I have no idea why its called that!) It was a fun day, with lots of food, crafts, bands, and a car show! One of the food vendors was selling fried snickers, reese's, twinkies, and oreos; There's nothing like a small-town festival in the South!
