A Change In Scenery

Lily and I took a visit to see my mom. It was a great trip and an even better visit! Here are my shots for the day.

Childhood gifts from my cousin Kimberly made excellent subjects ☺
This saucer is the size of a nickel.




Her original letter is still in good shape!

I had to stop by the lake to get these shots.

Focus on fishing

Lily got her first fishing pole today. Of course it's pink and has Dora on it, but it's not really intended for catching real fish anyway. ☺





While she fished with Daddy, I took a little climb up the rocks.









Before the sun started to set, these beautiful clouds caught my eye.


Here's what I came up with while I was at the top of the rocks







My final shot was one of my favorites of the day of course:



~Have a great weekend!!~

70° at last!

As the sun shone on Lily's face in the car, she sang "Oh Mister Sun, Sun, Mister Golden Sun...please shine down on me!"



We tried a new park today and it was fantastic! Lily had her first sandbox experience...All I have to say is  *BIRTHDAY PRESENT!!* 


She said (loudly enough for everyone within 50 feet to hear) "I'm building a house Mommy! It's beauteeful!"






This statue really caught my eye, but the teddy bear made it even cuter! Kids are awesome.



At "our" playground, Lily only uses the little slide..it's about 3 feet high. Today, she conquered a new slide about 8 feet tall!! It was exciting to watch her climb the stairs and feel so accomplished ☺



Meanwhile, Daddy had made his way down to the lake. She finally decided to follow him.


I asked what she was digging for, and she said (as if I should have already known) "I'm digging for clam shells!"


What an adventurous girl she is, climbing all over rocks. Made us nervous, made her happy.


Then came a Schnauzer to get a drink, then off for a walk!

Somehow she ended up with grass in her hair ☺





We really enjoyed this park, so be looking for more pics soon!
