Mini-Vacation in Little Rock

The first few days of August, Josh had a convention to attend in Little Rock, so the boys and I tagged along and had some fun of our own while daddy was gone each day.  We were able to spend some time with our great friend Mickey and her daughter Jessica.  We then did some shopping, went downtown to the Museum of Discovery and swam a lot at the hotel pool.  The boys had so much fun on our little mini-getaway. :-)

The boys were so excited to spend the night at the hotel.

Carter found a mask he wanted....

The Museum of Discovery was such a neat place.  The boys loved it so much we stayed for 2 1/2 hours!  I couldn't get them to leave.  They had tons of science stuff, experiments, reptiles, play areas, etc.  It was a lot of fun and we will definitely go back our next trip to Little Rock.

The boys then found an acupuncture table and decided to try it out. :-)


They loved working these pulley systems.




Carter wanted his picture by this cow b/c is reminded him of Pa-Pa's cows.



Carter loved this stage and dressing up in every outfit to "perform".

The boys even got to pretend to be on a tv production set. :-)



We then walked down to the river and went up on the bridge.


We purchased some snorkel gear while we were there which was a huge hit at the pool.

Mickey's granddaughter January played with the boys our last day there.
