Little Rock (FINALLY!!)

We went to Little Rock to watch the Hogs play (I know, a MONTH ago!) and stayed with our friends Victor and Rhonda. We had such a great time. We were planning to only stay one night but ended up cancelling the hotel and stayed two. Harrison and their son, Aiden, became instant best friends! Harrison even stayed home with them instead of going to the game. The first night we were there our other friends (Chris and Cristal) came over and we cooked out and let the kids play. We decided that hanging out two weekend in row was really nice (the weekend before was the Michael Jackson party)! I didn't get ANY pics of the adults and this is the only decent one of some of the kids. We are missing several :).

I went to tell the boys to get ready for bed. Zane was passed out on the couch!

Zane was playing catch with Ceola in the parking lot.
This is their daughter, Olivia. I wish that Lyddie would have been there. They would've had SO much fun!!

Cotillion

Zane started cotillion tonight. He wasn't OVERLY excited but ended up having a really good time. I couldn't believe how handsome and mature all of the boys looked. I almost didn't recognize them. Ha!! After cotillion, a lot of them walked (with some parents) to Tim's Pizza.
There were just a few boys when we got to the square for pictures.

Then they ALL showed up! One of the parents asked which pledge class this was :). Zane is in the middle row fourth from the right.

We're Swimming!!!!

We are SO excited to have the pool filled up. The boys have swam almost everyday (not matter what the temperature was). There is still a lot of work to be done but at least we can swim!! The pool surface is a darker blue like in this pic. There was a lot of dust on the bottom in the first one and it made it look lighter. You can see Lyddie's big step on the bottom right corner. They love to jump off this higher side. There have been some pretty good cannon balls in the last week :). There will be water spouts where those white pipes are sticking out.

She loved this car even if it wouldn't hold air!

Partying With The "Jacksons"

I got an evite from our good friends in Conway a few weeks ago (Chris and Cristal). My email comes thru on my blackberry and I usually wait to get on my regular computer to open links and things like that. I talked to Cristal on the phone and told her we were coming and never pulled up the actual invitation. I saw "house party" and immediately thought housewarming party since they moved into a new house not long ago. We show up to find her house totally decked out for a Michael Jackson party (it was his birthday)!!!! Costumes encouraged but not required :). We obviously weren't dressed for it but had a GREAT time!!!! People were greeted by her friend, April, hanging a baby out of the window. She hired dancers and redecorated her house. This girl can throw a party. I didn't get very many pictures :( This is our friend Victor from residency. We LOVE him and were SO excited to see him. We haven't seen him several years!!"Beat It"
