After a very green and yummy breakfast we headed down to the Holler (and now that I'm writing that I'm wondering if I'm spelling it correctly). We went because we learned Aunt Jen had never been. I'm not sure if the kids had ever been either. I'm also not really sure how to explain it. It's basically valleys close to Baxter. I don't know if it's officially Buffalo Valley or officially the Holler or something else all together. I remember going for drives there frequently when Andrew and I were children. It wasn't far from where we lived and Mom and Dad enjoyed collecting wild flowers there. It seems like it was a main attraction for anyone who ever visited us and we always took company there. It's pretty, fun and great for lots of exploration if you're a kid. I guess you just have to go and see/experience it for yourself. If you ever visit my parents and haven't had the pleasure of a visit to the Holler, ask them to take you there! :) We stopped at one of the places we frequented growing up and the girls had a fantastic time!
Aunt Jennifer and Uncle Andrew helped the girls explore and find fossils
Aunt Jen found a little salamander
One happy little girl!
One happy dog!
The girls tried to skip rocks with Uncle Andrew and Aunt Jen. Somewhere along the way Reagan decided it was more efficient to locate the largest rocks and just chuck them in. If you can't skip a rock, then you might as well create the biggest splash possible, right?!?!?
No harm in trying, right?
Besides the hat, I think Reagan looks like she's walking like a Leprechaun in this picture :) 
Kennedy enjoyed throwing large rocks as well 
Then he decided it was pretty funny to hold rocks on top of his head. Looking at this picture it's definitely one of those times I wish I could hear exactly what he was thinking. :)
Jackson also enjoyed hanging out with Grammy while the girls explored with Uncle Andrew, Aunt Jennifer and Boss
Nothing like a good book (especially if it's about Thomas and Friends) when rocks are no longer exciting enough entertainment

Jackson never really went near the water but he throughly enjoyed inspecting each rock individually
