Woo Pig Babies


We went to Fayetteville for a very quick visit. We packed it in though, soccer game, a baby shower, seeing Molly and the new Bittle twins, good visit and time with the Johnsons, and going to the Razorback game for a crushing win. Jack went to the game with us while ikey stayed with pops and Lelly to watch it on tv. Jack was fun to watch the game with because he is really into sports and knows a lot about the players and was into it. DF said, Jack knows more about the Razorbacks than we do. And he is right about that! 
This little piggy loved his first trip to Fayetteville, and was a happy guy. 

I took off with this crew (minus August) to meet franklin at the game. He went on to tailgate before.
Nora wanted to find maddy paddy so we tracked her down at the concession stand! They were happy girls to see each other
The sun was right in our faces at first but quickly went down. Hence the fake, squinty smiles.
This guy got tuckered out at one point

And so did this girl, but they were troopers.
Nora said; " I say 'woo pig babies' because I love babies.
 
David Franklin wanted a shelf to go on the wall by his top bunk bed because he said he needed a night stand, and he was right. He asked his Pops to make him one...an idea he had on his own. He told pops what he wanted and helped him make a shelf from start to finish. He picked out the width and length of the boards he wanted. Helped to sand it, pulled the trigger to help drill thf screws in and even picked out the color...A metallic gold. Maybe he has more Grands Ellen's pizzaz in him than we thought! Not what I would have chosen but it's his shelf and his choice. He's very proud of it and can't wait to put a lamp and Hardy Boys books on his shelf. It was a special experience for DF and Pops to do together and something I think DF will remember.
