whoa that was a long time!

So a lot has happened since I last posted. I went with my church family to Northwest Arkansas for a little weekend away from the world. It was about 50degrees during the day and upper 30s and low 40s at night! The leaves were changing to magnificent shades of fall colors. Randy, our pastor, made sure from the moment we walked in the door, we were never without a fire in the fireplace! The lodge and campgrounds where we stayed, were in the midst of bluffs, an overflowing stream full of freezing rapids and so much more! The people who run the campgrounds take groups on tours to the Goat Cave. I went 2 years ago when we were there and was determined to climb that feat again. The view from the Goat Cave is just gorgeous! These are some pictures from the weekend.

Wet Booty: the result of not knowing how to climb down and scooting on your booty.

next stop, petting zoo!


fabulous piggy back rides!


next stop, waterfall! we thought it was going to be huge. turns out the trickle of water was the fall... A fun adventure nonetheless.


Sitting on a fallen tree is a necessity in a hike.


The waterfall crew!


Next stop, chill on the bluffs and enjoy the majesty of our creator!


Boys will be boys...

Sitting in a rocking chair on the porch of the lodge is a fabulous afternoon!
