The highlight of our summer for the past two years is visiting Stacey (dale),Jolene, Kaylen and Jayden in Arkansas. We never get to stay long and they are always @ the last minute but Stacey and Jolene sure do know how to show us a good time. This year they had just purchased their new houseboat so we got to tube, knee board, go down the slide a MILLION times and just relax in the warm clean lake water. When the days were done we fixed a yummy dinner on the boat and watched a movie and played cards. Here are some pics of our vacation, ok it's actually alot of pics but we had such a good time. So, till next year..........We love driving to Arkansas and seeing all the green, we swear on the way home if there was anyway we could move out east we would. Here is a beautiful waterfall off of Greers Ferry Lake.
