Friday, hubby and I drove to Bella Vista to visit the princess. She was spending the week with her dad and we missed her, so we wanted to swing by and give her a hug and a kiss. From there, we headed to the Crystal Bridges museum in Bentonville. I had been there before with the kids, but this was hubby's first time. He is a huge art fan, so I was excited to show him the museum. We had a fantastic time. The museum is wonderful. They are setting up for a new show, so some of the art I wanted to show him was not available. We did about an hour and a half in the museum, took a lunch break, finished up the museum and then did one of the outside walking tours. It was hot, so we only did the art walk. It is so beautiful. I took some photos, but they really do not do it justice. It is well worth the visit. We are going to go again in the fall so we can take advantage of the outside gardens. After the museum, I took hubby on a quick tour of Bentonville. I lived there for about a year right before my divorce, so I had to show hubby Wal Mart land. After, we drove to Fayetteville and had a yummy dinner on Dickson Street. We ate at Hog Haus Brewery. Honestly, the house beer was crap, but the food was delicious and so was the wine. We ate on the top patio, which was shaded and prime for people watching, something hubby and I love to do. After dinner we went out for pie at the Village Inn. We do not have one in Little Rock, which makes me sad. They have awesome pie and I have been craving good pie for about a month. I had the French Silk. Yummmmmm. Sunday, we had a leisurely morning, stopped off at Rick's Bakery and then made our way back home. We stopped off in Altus and quickly went through two wineries. Honestly, the tasting at Wiederkher's was not good. I was all set to buy some wine to take home, but yuck, no thank you. We decided it was way too hot to actually tour so we are going to go back in the fall and taste our way through Altus. All in all it was a wonderful weekend. We did have a few hiccups. Mark locked us out of the apartment we were staying in and we had to call a locksmith. They were there in record time and it only cost $45.00. The scooter acted up for a minute, but the great guys at Midas in Bentonville got us sorted out and charged us $0. So that was awesome. Love kind people.
Princess is home as well as Jake and Rader. I am a happy momma. Here's to a wonderful weekend ahead!
Hugs!
