The Clark Cabin:
Trey's parents generously offered their cabin on their family farm until we found a permanent place. The Clark Cabin is a wonderful little retreat and we enjoyed our time there so much. The cabin yard was like one you might read about in a children's book, with many places for a 3 year old to explore including woods, lush flowerbeds, a peach orchard, a wrap around deck, lots of rock stairs winding up the hill, and if you venture far enough in the back yard you'll find a little creek with a waterfall! And you never knew what woodland creature you might see out the window. Trey and his Daddy planted a garden and so we enjoyed fresh tomatoes, squash, corn and okra all summer long. They even included a row of gorgeous zinnias so we could pick fresh flowers whenever we wanted.

October 2006:
This is our Bible study group that met Thurs. nights. (well, they still meet but i don't go anymore of course.) Being part of such a great group of girls was one of the best parts of living in Northwest Arkansas. I miss them so much!!
September 2006: Ava's 2nd b-day at her Fayetteville house. Guests were her great-grands Honey and PopPop and Kenny, "Monnie", Audrey and Tess Barnes.

September 2006: "Monnie" and Kenny take Ava to Chuck-E-Cheese's. Kenny and Amanda were so sweet to do fun stuff with Ava while we lived in NWA. She adores them. We miss them terribly, but still see them throughout the year when they come to visit. When they come down, Ava gets so excited and sometimes gets to spend the night at Aunt Julia's with them. We have lots of great memories of Ava with Kenny and "Monnie" and I can't wait until she's a little older and can start going to their house for a little vacation every now and then!
