Trip to Arkansas

Nathan and I had the opportunity to come to NW Arkansas for the week to have a chance to relax and think things over concerning our future plans. Shawna's aunt and uncle have a beautiful lakehouse that they let us stay in. It was so wonderful to have a huge place to ourselves! On Wednesday, we went out and toured some of the attractions around the area. It was such a beautiful day, just driving around on the beautiful AR roads was enjoyable. Here are some of our pictures of the week:


The lake were the lakehouse was located. It was so relaxing there.


Nate and I posing on some rocks.


This is at the War Eagle's Mill. We were the only ones there under the age of 60 probably, but we enjoyed it just the same! The land around it was beautiful. Inside the farmhouse, they had a store full of organic grains and goodies(we bought some blue cornflour and some pancakes mixes), a gift store, then a small restaurant at the top. Very neat :)


Here is Nate's lunch -- cornbread turkey sandwich, chips, and coleslaw.


Here is my lunch -- good ol' beans and cornbread with coleslaw.


The river at the mill -- just beautiful with the sun glistening on it.


Thought this was a beautiful picture.


This is at an chapel in the woods -- absolutely beautiful and incredibly peaceful. Definitely worth going to see. The sides are mostly glass windows, so you see woods all around you while inside.


Looking at at the front of the chapel.


Looking at the back of the chapel. I told Nate that if we ever renew our vows, we are doing it there!

  3. I've seen many a wedding at Cooper Chapel, and it is absolutely beautiful! You're right...it would be a perfect place for vow renewal.
