Happy 2nd Anniversary!

Jeff and I decided that we would go to Hot Springs, AR for our anniversary this year! We had the best time...just relaxed and enjoyed every moment together! This is a picture of our hotel The Arlington. We really liked our stay.

We thought it was so cool that they had actual keys to the doors! No place has real keys anymore!

This was the view from our room toward the left. We went to the mountain view tower that you see in this picture.

This was the view from our room to the right.


The second night, our first night to go out, we went to an Italian restaurant and enjoyed the dinner very much. Afterward we hung out in front of the hotel. This picture was taken by me!

We took this picture of our hotel when we went to visit the mountain view tower. If you look at the right you can see the pool and hot tub area in the side of the mountain! It was really cool! The hot tub was filled with water from the hot springs and had to be mixed with cold water so it wouldn't burn us when we got in.

Here we are on top of the mountain view tower!!

After the tower and lunch, it started to rain. We went back to the hotel and threw around some ideas on what to do. While we were thinking the rain stopped!!! We headed to the Garvan Woodland Gardens and saw some very beautiful scenery. This was my favorite thing we saw and I know Jeff's was the fish I got to feed! :-)

After walking around the gardens we went back to get cleaned up for dinner. We ate at Brick House Grill. We enjoyed our steaks and had a great waitress. She took this picture for us.

Before leaving Hot Springs we had to eat at McClard's for lunch. This is the famous bar-b-q place that former President Bill Clinton had food shipped from to the White House. It was very yummy!!

I just had to share this beautiful picture! We saw this as the sun was setting on our second day. This was such a perfect reminder of how beautiful our God is!

For this child I prayed...

On Sunday our friends Carolyn and Drew had a shower to get ready for their soon arriving baby boy Rhodes Andrew Herndon. The shower was such a special time of prayer and celebration for the growing Herndon family. Here's Carolyn at the shower...what a happy mom-to-be!!

Jeff picked out the cute football for Rhodes!

While the girls were at the shower the boys were at the house getting the yummy food ready with Carolyn's dad. We went back to the house and enjoyed dinner and visiting! A great end to a busy weekend!

Let's Get Together!

Last Friday and Saturday Jeff and I went to Houston for Wilma's (my mom-in-law) family reunion! We got to see so manny people and had such an awesome time! We loved getting to visit with family that we don't get to see very often! This picture includes my mom and dad-in-law, Jeff and Wilma, all of Wilma's siblings and their spouses that were at their reunion, some of Jeff's cousins and Jeff's big brother Tony and his wife Robyn. Other family members and close family friends were there as well.

This is Robyn, Tony, Wilma, Jeff, Jeff and me. Sorry it's seems a little blury.

Here is a sweet picture of Jeff with his mom!

This is an awesome picture of Jeff with his brother, dad and Pop playing dominoes!

We had so much fun and were sad when we had to leave, but we look forward to seeing everyone again! Family is such a blessing!

I wanna be a blogger!

I'm so excited to start posting on our new blog! We are looking very forward to sharing what's going on in "The Jackson Huddle" with our family and friends both in and out of town! Hope you enjoy the new blog!
