The cousins… absolutely beautiful. None of my siblings have children yet, so these are the only first cousins our girls have. The wedding was very fun and fit Jade and Karsten perfectly. We are so blessed that we were able to be a part of their day. The girls did a great job and were so well behaved through everything and we were very proud of them. Plus they looked totally adorable!

Our niece Jade and her fiance Karsten asked if the girls could be their flower girls for the wedding and of course we said yes. Here are some of our adventures while in Eureka Springs, AR and I will do a separate post for the wedding because we have so many photos. We drove in to Eureka Springs and found our Hidden Hollow cottage literally in a hidden hollow. It was so far down and surrounded by so many trees that there was no internet or cell phone service.

This was Nadia’s third time as a flower girl and Amelie’s first and I love how much she is laughing in this photo. She was so excited!

The morning of the wedding we decided to go check out Eureka Springs and have breakfast at the Mud Street Cafe. It was a pretty cool, hippie sort of place with wonderful food. After that we walked the streets window shopping and taking photos until all the shops opened.

Power rings… it’s all superheroes all the time with this family.

We stopped in this place called Silly Chili so the girls could ride this elephant. It was just a quarter and actually went for longer than you would expect. A side benefit was that we ended up finding some really unique gifts for friends in this cute little shop. At the candy shop we also picked up some salt water taffy and rock candy. Then we headed back to the cottage and had pizza for lunch and made the girls take a nap to get ready for the wedding later that evening.

I LOVE taking photos of random signs that make me laugh.
