Family Visit

Check it out. Big Bad Dad MP is making a post. I really wanted Miranda to keep doing this but I thought I would give my artistic side a chance to shine. She has been shaming me for a couple of weeks maybe after reading this you can convince her that she needs to be making the posts.

Let's check in on our Arkansans that we transplanted in Iowa. It is said they always make it back to their native home range. So far the transplant has been somewhat successful with a few migrations back to Arkansas each year.

The vegetation is quite thick this time of year. Watch out for poison ivy.

Breath taking natural beauty.

Look! We've spotted them. Here is the Large Hairy Back Male exploring the park.

Interesting some of the original troop from Arkansas came for a visit. Memaw, Pepaw, and Uncle G have come for the weekend.

Ladies and Gentlemen, here we see the Grand Matriarch (Memaw) showing her grandbaby how to throw rocks in the water at Ledges State Park. Fascinating! Oh look, as we pass through the park you will see the transplant troop congregating at the water hole (Des Moines River). We see that the troop is made up of the young one who I've named Madilynn and the parents (Miranda and Michael). I feel as though I'm becoming one of their troop.

Madilynn is now running down hill. Oops, I think she has detected our presence. Let's back away so as not to alarm her.

Madilynn is advancing everyday. She has mastered the jungle gym.

Isn't she sooo cute!

Kisses, Uncle G?

Oh you made her sad!

Madilynn is very keen on our presence. It's as though she is pointing at us.

Funny faces!!!

She's played hard this weekend. Time to go night, night.
