Mountain Home: Days 3&4

Monday Crew got to discover the amazing lakes of Arkansas. They have two huge lakes within 20 minutes of my grandma's house. They are the size of Lake Powell, but in the middle of northern Arkansas so nobody is really on them. They are warm and surrounded by beautiful trees which make them heaven for me! Crew had to concur. We just went swimming on this day. Crew wouldn't get out the entire 2 hours we were there. He loved it!
We finally convinced him that life jackets are good and he swam all over with us.
The next morning we had a great thunder and lightening storm! Crew and grandpa sitting on my grandma's porch watching the storm come over, pointing out lightening strikes and talking back to the thunder. It was a cute interaction to observe.

Crew also found time to get acquainted better with the John Deer Ride-on lawn mower.
You will notice in many pictures from this trip Crew is not wearing a shirt or shoes. I told you he felt right at home in Arkansas.
Tuesday afternoon we went bowling with the cousins.
Crew is so hilarious to watch. He loves it and bowled two games. He just doesn't wear out!
I had some amazing streak of luck! See the S row three down. See the 4 strikes in a row! Yeah, I'm looking into a career since my 170 was all talent and no luck!

Crew spent the rest of the afternoon playing with some of his 2nd cousins in the yard. Nothing like an otterpop to finish of a fun day of play.
