Summer Vacation

We went to Table Rock Lake - more specifically, Shell Knob, Mo. with Chris' family for vacation this year. We went boating and had a day trip to Eureka Springs, AR. It was such a blast! We went for an entire week - leaving the day after Mandy's shower and coming back on July 4.



On the train ride at Eureka Springs.



My Engineer

(Hahahahaha! I couldn't resist!)


The "Old Folks"

Not at all! You should see them on the wakeboard!



Michael, his girlfriend Sarah, Chris & I on the dining car.



Eureka Springs & North Arkansas train

We toured the train depot and even took a ride on one of the trains. The town was founded because of the healing power of the springs in the area. People came by the hundreds to be healed! Then the town exploded when the trains came. We had quite a history lesson from our tour guide on the train - he was a character. He really liked Becki because she was a teacher, just like his momma! (See picture below)
Go Becki!

Woowoo! Yah! Bob!


Our favorite pup - Blackjack a.k.a. Jack, Jackattack, Jackie, JAAAACK!
Sarah's puppy - a black yorkie. He's a sweetie alright, but we're still working on the potty training a little. He does a good job most of the time, but sometimes we miss the signal!


Our bedroom - yes the newlyweds had to sleep on separate beds!


Our cabin. We had the bottom floor and another family was on the top floor.


That's my man!


Yes, I wakeboard too. I was even jumping the wake by the end of the trip (but no one took a picture!)


Chris in his happy place. He'd live on the lake if he could!
