Spring Break

Spring Break was a couple of weeks ago, but I just got these pictures downloaded today. We had a nice break, the weather was good for the most part, and we were able to get outside a lot. One of the places we took the kids was the Chattahoochee Nature Center. It is only a 10 minute drive, the admission is nominal, there are animals to see, plus woods to "hike" through. So much easier than the chaos at the Zoo this time of year, and the kids were just as happy. And us moms even more so.

I had a hard time getting these pictures to post in the order I wanted them, I finally gave up! Anyway, the first one is Sophie and Noah playing a game on the benches near where we had our picnic lunch, they were pretending to be animals that were chasing each other, those two never have a dull moment.

The next one is the kids climbing up on a bench to count the turtles sunning on a log in the pond.

Posing on the rocks when we first arrived, and last but not least, checking out the beaver area again. Still no sign of beavers. By this time we had been there 3 hours, we were all tuckered out, and Miss Kathleen had handed out the suckers to keep the peace. Hey, whatever it takes!

for some reason, she kept them on all day, never in her life has she done that before.

Those suckers are good for keeping the peace!
