Northwest Arkansas Part 2

We had a great time hanging out at Chris and Anne's for a delicious BBQ.
Elyot got to try watermelon for the first time.

On our last day in America, we got to show Elyot the house where Mama was a baby.

And then we all had Mexican food and cocktails.

It was too much for some us...

Northwest Arkansas Part 1

After Petit Jean, we rolled in to Fayetteville, where we stayed in a condo near Anne and Chris's house.

Elyot got to have his first Waffle House experience--and his first waffle.

We enjoyed hanging out by the lake with Anne and Chris.


After a few days we were joined by NaMe and Grandaddy, who told us about some of their old haunts.

Petit Jean

(We are very behind with our blogging! Mama is going to try to catch up, and will be backdating some posts, so check back often, and scroll down for earlier posts you might have missed.)

After Magnolia, back in July, we set out for Northwest Arkansas, and stopped for a couple of nights at Tanyard Springs on Petit Jean Mountain along the way.

We ate most of our meals outside our log cabin.

On Petit Jean, we visited the Museum of Automobiles.

Jackson had fun pointing out cars of note to Elyot.

Elyot in Eldorado

On our last day in Magnolia, we met up with Jerry and Kay in Eldorado, where we had a Mexican meal on the square. It was Elyot's first time to visit Eldorado, where Mama and Daddy got married 7 years ago.

The next day we set out on our drive north through Arkansas. More to come, but here is a bonus picture of Elyot enjoying himself in Magnolia:
