Crater of the Diamonds

The boys have had this idea of going to dig for diamonds for the past six months. They've been obsessed with it because of the game Minecraft. They found this place called crater of the diamonds in Arkansas and decided that's where we needed to go on a mini vacation this summer. It is about five hours away so after church we headed for Arkansas. We spent the night before in a hotel and the boys loved it. We had a huge room and they love jumping from bed to bed. They loved the breakfast in the morning, and there was a sign that said, Pool with an arrow pointing down. They could not figure out why the sign would say that. The next day we headed to the crater.we dug and dug, but the boys only lasted about two hours. A lady asked Brant during the digging if he was ready to go to school. He looked at her and said no, I hate school and I'm going to be at WWE wrestler. We found some quartz and a very nice piece sandstone.  Then we got in the car and drove five hours back. The highlight of the drive back was we listen to Hank the cow dog.
