Stephanie's mother rented a house on Beaver Lake which is just a few miles north of Fayetteville. The lake is huge! I forget exactly how big but it is something like 50 miles from one end to the other.
We had a great time visiting with family and relaxing. It was our first time on a commercial airplane with Caiden and he did really well (better on the plane than in the airport actually) so all went pretty well. He loved the boat! As you can see in the pictures he got "boat head" from all the wind! He really liked it when we hit bumps and would tell me to steer over to where any bumps were from other boats, it was pretty funny.
Arkansas gets so much rain that they can have some really great fireworks without the worry of starting a fire. The are almost like the stuff you see at a professional show. Steph's uncle Rick is a pyrotechnician so we had our own show with up to 6 inch shells, it was wild! I didn't bring a tripod with me so I don't have very good pictures of the show but I have to say that it was absolutely amazing! The entire sky was lit up, neighbors came from all around to watch.
On the way back home I stopped in LA for a 777 wedding while Steph and Caiden went back home. The wedding was up in Westlake Village just north of Los Angeles starting at the Four Seasons then on to the Westlake Village Yacht Club. I will put up some photos from Daniel and Whitney's beautiful wedding as soon as I get the chance but right now I am trying to make up for being gone for a week! Isn't it funny how you go on vacation but you have to work twice as hard to make up for it?!
Boat head!
Trampoline
What are you looking at!?
It was the slowest tube ride in the history or tubing...
These are the tubes the fireworks launch out of. I told you we weren't messing around!
Caiden loves riding the tractor mower. In Arkansas, it rains so much you don't have to water your lawn so everyone has to mow their entire yard every week.
It was more impressive in person :)
