This past weekend, we stayed in Van Buren again. Christian took his first swim lessons and did great! I was so proud of him! Saturday night, I went out with friends. Sunday after Christian's swim lesson, we went on a long a scenic drive to Mt. Magazine.

A little tidbit of information on Mt. Magazine.... At 2,753-feet, Mount Magazine is Arkansas's highest mountain, rising dramatically above the broad valleys of the Petit Jean River to the south and the Arkansas River to its north. Graced with timeless natural beauty, this plateau-a remnant of an ancient sea floor-runs east-west stretching six miles long and up to a mile across. It is a popular place for hiking, hand gliding, horseback riding and camping.
The lodge had lots of rocking chairs where you could sit and enjoy the views!
A beautiful water feature at the entrance to the lodge.
The lounge with a huge rock fireplaceWe had dinner at the Mt. Magazine Lodge and it was really nice and relaxing.
Andrew did great for the whole trip and through dinner! After dinner, we got in the car and drove home and the boys slept the entire way! Yea!
