Before and After the Wedding Pictures
We stayed at the "Sleep-Inn" in Bentonville. This is the only picture we were able to get. There was a lot of construction and traffic was bad.
The Wal-mart in Rogers
Down from the hotel on the way to Rogers we saw this cool old-fashioned looking Denny's
Then we saw this car was which was cool looking too.
Traffic was stopped in front of us on the main road in Rodgers... Turns out there were 3 goats in the road and someone was trying to shoo them to the side.
We met up with Uncle John, Aunt Nancy, Jodi, Jerry, and all their children at Ryans.
Here we are arriving at the church a few hours before the wedding starts.
The church is ready.
The grooms' cake is ready.
The Bride's cake is getting a few last touches.
Here we are taking pictures and standing around before anyone starts getting ready.
Linda, the bride, before the wedding.
Jacque and I wanted to escape with Jodi for a few minutes so we went for a ride. We had never seen a "Neighborhood Market" Wal-mart before, so we went in for a look.
When we got back to the church, Jerry was there. So we got a few pictures with him.

That night we stayed with Uncle John and Aunt Nancy
The sunrise... from Jodi's bedroom window.
Uncle John's land and views of his house.
Jonathon took some pictures of Uncle John's Chickens, Rooster, and Turkey
A quilt Aunt Nancy made for Jodi
an interesting rock in Uncle John's front yard.
Pictures I took of the ducks, chickens, etc...
On our way to Branson, Missouri
Another Wal-mart, this one in Missouri.
This is a cool crafts and souvenir shop, it had 3 levels
Micheal wearing a fake coon hat
a Lego "painting" of George W Bush. Unfortunately I didn't realize the flash messed up the picture
Some of the cool stuff they had in the store
A "Diet Fork", lol!
These were cool... I wouldn't mind a couple of these!
Back over to the Arkansas border.
Interesting name for a gas station.
We stopped in the Harrison Wal-mart to get groceries before we went back to Uncle John's and Aunt Nancy's house.
This is one of Uncle John's creeks. Chris took lots of pictures for us. Although I don't know why he took the picture of the shoe in the water?
One or two last pictures before we left Sunday afternoon.
ok... what's the deal with this tractor up in the air?
Hurricane Cave was closed so we took pictures at the look out and at a small cave beside the road.
All of us sitting on the rock
All of us being silly, "looking out" over the valley. It started with Jessica really looking out and it being a cool picture, so the rest of us did it too.
Here they are, climbing the rocks
Chris and Jessica climbed up the rough gravel on the side to the top, Mike climbed the rock face. Jonathon tried both, but didn't quite get the hang of it.
This is the little cave.
Jonathon climbed up for me to take a picture
Chris slid down the side of the hill on his butt.
Here they are climbing up the inside of the cave to the ledge at the top.
Us in the mouth of the cave
another rock big enough for all of us, and luckily a fence post to prop the camera on to get a group photo.
Yes... I think this place was built just for me!
