Spring Lake Outing

We had the opportunity to walk at Spring Lake, followed by a picnic and fun at the Environmental Discover Center.
What a beautiful March day!




While we picnicked, I notice a woman sketching us. She showed me her sketch--so terrific for so many of us wiggling around. I recognized her--it turned out that she had been in two painting classes I took ten years ago!
The rocks outside the Environmental Discover Center are fun to climb on!

Inside, we found a tide pool to explore.
Do you see the crab, fish, and sea stars?

Today...

...Trey woke up. "I feel sick," he stated, and went back to bed until 10! After some Advil he did perk up around 11, eat 6 pieces of toast with honey, 3 radishes, 1/2 a grapefruit, and a rolled up tortilla with butter and cinnamon sugar!

Maggie the other day when she felt misunderstood, "If you were in my feet, you'd understand!" She meant "in my shoes." So cute.

Carl's 41st Birthday

We enjoyed spending time together for Carl's 41st birthday. We went out for a little hike, enjoying the sunshine.



Trey's "fish"






We invited friends over to surprise Carl by stopping by--what a blast!

Baby Kora

I had the joy of being at the birth of this little one. What a precious gift from God.

I got to stay and help Liz at night. The second morning I got all these shots.
Kora decided she didn't like to be uncovered...or photographed anymore.
Bundled up...much better!
