Life with my sister

Spring Break for us was last week. We went to the Historic Arkansas Museum in Little Rock. It was really good. The guided tour is informative and entertaining. Upstairs at the museum tucked away in a corner is a childrens room. It has a place for the kids to play dress-up, have puppet shows, play games, and watch educational videos. We also went to the MacArthur Military Museum. It wasn't on my list of fun things to do over spring break, but it wasn't so bad. They give the kids age appropriate scavenger hunts to do while they walk through the museum. My kids thought it was great, they are always up for a game. They even got a little prize for getting all the answers correct! Because I am so cheap, the best part of the week was at Shorty Smalls! We ate lunch there on Monday. At the end of our lunch the manager came by with free coupons to use on our next visit.

She drug Nana into the store, looked at her with sad eyes, told her that she was the only one that didn't have a bear from this store. And Nana fell for it hook, link, and sinker! Welcome Lucy Kathryn to our family. She truly has a face only HER mother could love. Julie

So you guys are stuck with me! This is the last day of school before spring break, we are so excited!! I am making the kids do as much school work as I can today, but I'm not teaching them anything new. I'm sure they would forget anything I taught them today if not reviewed for a week. I know I would. It looks as if we are headed to Ft Smith for a few days. Stephen hasn't been in a while, and we couldn't think of much else to do for just a couple of days. Saturday, Stephen and I are going to the Newsboys/Rush of Fools concert in Little Rock with a couple from church and their two children. I'll let you know how i...
