My mother-in-law hails from Arkansas, land of Bill Clinton, soybeans, fried food, the ivory-billed woodpecker, and The Wal Marts. Therefore, my mother-in-law, the kids and I loaded up in the car Thursday and made the 14 hour trip to Arkansas.
Ok, so it’s normally more like an 11 hour trip, but we were traveling with two kids. And maybe we stopped in Tennessee to stay with my aunt-in-law (is that a real title?) to split the trip a bit. Either way, we’re here. We made it.
We’re spending the entire week with family. I’m so appreciative of the hospitality, and that my kids have the opportunity to get to know their extended family. I’m also appreciative of air conditioning, as the high is well into the 90s every day this week. I’m looking forward to learning new phrases while I’m here. They have entire sayings I’ve never heard before!
I’m hoping to finish a book and start a small sewing project while I’m here, so I it should be good blogging fodder. Until then – so long from The Natural State.
