A Perfect Day

It was a beautiful day.  Perfect in fact.  
We were all together.  Which, no matter where we are is in itself always perfect.  But today we were able to take advantage of the glorious sunshine and beautiful scenery.  
We looked at flowers.  We looked for catapusses.  (Caterpillars, if you were wondering.)  We didn't find any.  We climbed trees.  Skipped rocks and through rocks in the lake too.  We even kept our eyes out for snakes.  Luckily, we didn't find any of those either.

It seems that my Beauties are always dancing to a beat...even when there is no music playing.  Farrah just started busting a move while helping Silvie pick "pretty flowers" or as some may call them...Dandelions.


Silvie is my little flower child
Daddy and his Beauties watching some men fishing.  The men were really good sports.  They turned and chatted with us.  They were as amazed with the Beauties as the Beauties were with their fish.  Daddy was doing a very good job trying to explain why we have to be quiet and calm and not throw rocks into the water when people are trying to catch fish.  The talk worked and they were quiet for all of about 3 minutes.

Not only were we fortunate enough to encounter one snake, but we were lucky enough to come across a second.  Oh goody!
The first one I almost stepped on while trying to snap some shots of Matt with the Beauties.  If you were wondering, yep, I screamed.  The second was in a tree along the trail.  There were some boys walking n the trail in front of us and spotted it.  As we approached they moved on, but we knew they had been looking at something in the tree.  When we reached the tree...a snake.  Cool .  Yuck.

Spring has sprung

Warm weather is officially here.
The Beauties and Mommy were more than willing to welcome it with open arms.
Matt and I have a lot of history in Kent Park.  The Beauties voted it an A+ too.  We packed a picnic and took in the beautiful scene around us.  No cares in the world...well, except for bugs.  The Beauties do NOT like bugs.  I agree with them.  Bugs are icky.  That being said, it is very difficult to play and enjoy the great outdoors without having a run in or two or six with some type of creepy crawler.
