Beard O'Fun

We went to Fayetteville on Monday to visit my brother. We love to go visit and see the new things at his store, The Mustache: Goods & Wears (www.shopthemustache.com). You don't have to live in Fayetteville or Bentonville to purchase their wonderful items, they ship. Ok, I'm done.

The girls had a great time visiting with Uncle Brian. We missed Aunt Ashley because she was in California running another marathon. Her goal is to run a marathon in each of the US states. I have no doubt that she will complete her goal. She's a crazy, amazing runner!

Our first stop was at the store, where Uncle Brian pushed the girls up and down the hall in a luggage rack. Oh, how we love cheap entertainment!

 

And Bailey was the door guard. Sort of.

 

After some shopping, we walked around the square and ate lunch at Hammontree. Yummy! They have gourmet grilled cheese sandwiches. Amazing. Not healthy at all, but amazing!

At the restaurant, the girls had to measure how long Uncle Brian's beard was getting.

 

Next stop, the top of Mount Sequoyah. Parker fell asleep on the drive to the top of the mountain. The views were spectacular!

Then we went to the castle. Yes, I said castle. It's the coolest place built at the edge of the city park and we visit in on every trip. The girls, and adults, love it!

My parents recently gave the big girls bug collecting kits so there was quite a bit of bug searching going on throughout the day.

And, last but not least, a family photo. The last time we posed on this bench, we were a family of four. I think the bench is getting smaller!

 

We had a great time making lasting memories with Uncle Brian ... and his beard!
