Splash Pad Fun in Little Rock

Down Town Little Rock as an awesome park that they've created over the past few years. This year they have opened up a Splash Pad for everyone and it is free for the public to use! We ventured down there this morning before it was to hot to go outside and the kids had a BALL!!!


Addeline stood up for the first time today, holding onto nothing! After the first time she really felt like a big girl, and was standing up over and over again!!! This made mommy a little nervous but apparently Dorian was the girl I should have been more worried about!


Dorian was having so much fun running around in the water that she hurt herself pretty bad. She came over to Daddy and Myself when we were getting Addeline ready for the water fun and slipped on a bench. She fell on the concrete pretty hard bruising her face and legs up. I felt so bad for her it made me almost cry. It was like the fun was taken right out of her morning :( But after a couple minutes she regained energy and went back at it. There was no signs of any concussions or any need for stitches just really stinks that it happened! So pictures are cancelled for her 2nd birthday and I will reschedule when I take Addeline next month for her 1 year photos.


After wards there was a farmers market going on in the same park so we stopped and bought some fresh fruit and tomato's...YUMMY!!!


All in all a great morning...I am taking the good with the bad!

This is a REALLY cool park to go to if you are ever in Little Rock! There are awesome hiking trails for all types of people, those who want easy trails and those who would like difficult ones, there are paved pathes for people with strollers, and a really nice play/pinic area for kiddos and those making a day out of being there! We saw awesome views from the out look, worked out, and played all in a single morning!!!! Something Niles' and I will go back to attack the hiking trails when we are feeling ambitious!!! Perfect morning!!!

Our Workin' Girl





Yes, she has no clothes on :)

The Big Damn Bridge














The "Big Dam Bridge" is in Little Rock, AR and is one of the coolest parks to visit. We went on Father's day this year and had a blast. The bridge is built over the Arkansas river and is built directly over a man made dam. The bridge is huge, about a mile across. The bridge was built for joggers, sight seeing, and cyclists. There are marathons and races each weekend held at this park. It is awesome and a must see if you ever come visit!!!
