2019 Blue Jeans Week 41

We had a great week with a long weekend which was nice.  We got away with our bikes to Bentonville, Arkansas which has tons of really nice bike trails.  We really enjoyed it.  Great cross country race this week.  Take a look at our week...
Miss E making some yummy "Daddy muffins."  They are a recipe Ben made for me when we were dating, and is a recipe that he made for the kids a lot when they were little, so they have hence earned the name of "Daddy Muffins."  I think the original recipe calls them a French breakfast puff?

Cross country race for the week.  It was a beautiful day, and these two posted their best times for the season and both got 12th in their varsity races.  Woohoo!  A great day for cross country!


We headed to Bentonville, AR for a long weekend.  Little did we know they had received over 7 inches of rain last week and 1 1/2 inches of rain the night before we got there.  This bike trail we tried to go on around a lake was completely covered.  Thankfully they had lots of other bike trails away from water that we enjoyed during our time there.

Tried a yummy Thai place for dinner.  Miss E liked it a lot more than Mr J :)

Heading off to hit the bike trails one morning from our hotel.  It was cold in the morning, but was a beautiful, sunny day, and we really enjoyed it!

We found some pretty spots to take some senior pictures of Miss E, but we ended up doing it during the middle of the day, so Mr J helped out with our lighting adjustments :)  Our awesome umbrella holder!

And then he was just being silly.  He enjoyed texting these pictures to entertain his other sisters at college who we missed a lot!  We all had some good laughs, especially Miss E when she saw it afterward.

Fun family time!

They have an amazing art museum Crystal Bridges in Bentonville, and they have miles and miles of nature trails with art along the way.  We really enjoyed our time there, and the weather was perfect!

Thanks for visiting! Hope you had a great week!
