easter eggs & saying goodbye

Last week we dyed eggs with megan, tony, & charlie in Bentonville.

Soon after that it was

time to say goodbye.

Hard to believe

that the next time these two boys get together-

Charlie will be walking & talking.

Jack will be talking too- but mostly in Portugese.

Saying goodbye at the airport was the worst.

Charlie didn't seem to mind it.

Although, his parents say

when he woke up he looked around a lot.

I'm sure he had to be thinking...

where did all those funny people go?

a lot of charlie pictures...

HAPPY FRIDAY

more trip details

Megan made a birthday cake for Jack last week.

NO one's birthday has been celebrated for so long & so many times in the history of our family birthdays!

Coconut Cream Cake

It was FANTASTIC

jack is obviously loved...

I think his wish may have been---

please let the time left at home go fast

He is so incredibly bored & ready to leave this week

Only 4 days left.

Saturday in Bentonville-

We headed out for some sight seeing & shopping & fun.

A trip to Bentonville wouldn't be the same without visiting Sam Walton's 5 & dime. It really is a great little museum.

You gotta love Sam Walton's "Sweet" according to Hailey & Jack, truck.

He was quoted to say- what am I supposed to drive a RR? Where would I put my dogs?

cool dude

The girls went shopping & bought headbands.

The boys (much to Trent's delight) went bowling.

Chloe & I gave Charlie a bath later that night.

So FUN

What a cutie!
