Spring Break ~ Part 1 ~ Texarkana

So happy for Spring Break! We started off our week with Mimi & Doo Dad in Texarkana. Monday we had a picnic at the park. (Yes, I had sandwich in my mouth!...but it was a cute pic otherwise....so I sacrificed myself!) It was a beautiful day.

We walked around the park looking for "hungry" ducks...not much. Those ducks are well fed.

But, we did find a baby turtle. It was SO cute! We took it home with us and the kids had their first pet...for 2 days anyway.

It was tiny. They named him Tiny Tim.

Then home for by dad's burgers....not much better! We had a picnic dinner. You know its a good day when you have 2 picnics!

We had a little early birthday party for Lawson. She got a pair of rainbow sketchers from Mimi and DooDad that she has been wanting for the past 2 months. She was SO excited!

Here are some more park picks.

Lawson doing the monkey bars....fear factor-style! You should have seen the look on her face! Fear towards the end!

Then on Tuesday we headed to the golf course. The kids LOVED this!

They played ALL nine holes "scramble" style with Robbie. The kids both got to drive the golf carts....which was a first for them both! And for us...never been chaffuered by mhy kiddos!

It took us about 3 hours to play all 9 holes...and the kids really wanted to stay and play more. Can't believe they will stick with it like that!

Then home for some sidewalk chalk art!

We also squeezed in a quick trip to Chuck E Cheese...not photos.

Such fun relaxing times. Thanks mom and dad for hosting us and treating us to fun things!

Part 2...coming up in Little Rock!
