Deeda, our faithful dessert maker:)
Savannah loves big bubbles:):):)
Rachel stayed the night up at the property, so we enjoyed her company for a few days:)
The creek almost came up over the bridges after it rained one of the days
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Granddaddy started up the Polaris and we hopped on and headed down to see the cemetery
The path going up to the cemetery
Trying to take a few pictures before it started pouring on us:/
"Tut! Tut! It looks like rain!!"
(In case anyone wondered, we didn't escape the rain.We got home quite drenched and cold....)
There was a warm fire burning in the fireplace when we got home much to our delight and relief:)
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
We all loaded up and headed down to the Miller's house after enjoying a week at the property with Uncle Jay, Aunt Ashley and Savannah. We couldn't wait to get there and see our "favorite-cousin-named-Joey":):)
Our lovely hostess
RG.... ummm......enthusiastically telling a story.....:)
Matt listening intently
My "Favorite-cousin-named-Sammy" enjoying his meal:):)
Matthew telling us a story
Wow, it must have been funny.....:)
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Joey and I took a walk up to the RV to get the camera.....Obviously, Joe has the camera:)
Rachel and Margaret picked us some greens to have for supper from Aunt Katie's lovely garden. Rachel would be in this picture, but she strongly objected to having her picture taken, so.....here is Deeda picking greens:)
Uncle Robert frying some really, really good chicken wings:D
Rachel and Margaret made some delicious sugar cookies for us:)
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
We played and sang some music together for a while

Matthew and I challenged each other to a game of "Fireseat" and everyone else joined in. Wow! Is it ever painful!!:):)
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Time to hop into the RV and head back over to the property to plant some trees and say our final goodbyes
Lovely Arkansas wildflowers
Getting ready to put a whole bunch of trees in the ground

A lovely autumn day
The freshly hayed field

No, I couldn't possibly go anywhere with nice, clear water and pretty scenery without having a photo shoot........

Howdy, friend!
Yours Truly
Mmmm....cool water!
Speedy Gonzalez (aka Matthew)
Finally, to say our last goodbyes, we all ate lunch at a BBQ restaurant
Sweet cousins
