You know what job would NOT be fun... putting sunscreen on a whole class of 2 yr olds before they go out for recess...
Thank you to Kate's teachers for protecting her against skin cancer! :)
And don't you love that smell... sunscreen on little kids.. ahh the scents of summer.

GArden

Jim made me a nice garden last weekend and I planted some seedlings on Monday and Tuesday night. This Sunday.. mother's day.. I looked out the window to show Janelle my nice garden and stared in horror as all my little plants had been eaten already by stupid rabbits! AHHHH!
So Jim and his mom ran to Lowe's and we spent Mother's Day afternoon building a chicken wire fence and drinking momosis and having a nice time. What do you think of that silly rabbit. Tricks are NOT for kids!






Arkansas Traveler

Did anyone play that song on the piano? I had to play it at a Piano Recital once when I was about..10yrs old. And I got up and told everyone I was playing "Arkansas Traveler" but I pronounced it Ar-Kansas, like the state.. Kansas. stupid grown ups not telling me how to say it.

Anyhoo, since Nici and Brian are moving there I thought I would google the town on Bentonville and see what it has to offer for the Spanglers.

2. Jim Walton, the world's 23rd richest man, lives in Bentonville

3. Karri Turner, actress on the adventure/drama television show JAG, grew up in Bentonville

4. They have a nice Farmer's Market in downtown

5. You can go to the famous Walton 5 and dime Museum to see how Walmart started as a little Mom and Pop store and grew to its size now

6. Bentonville square has some of the best shopping in the area

7. Chicken is the main thing to eat: try Slim Chickens.

8. Go to the Crystal Bridges Museum
