Exploring our wild backyard jungle!

We had so much fun today! Since Toshi is at work, the Sundays he's not home, we call it "Mom Day" (a freeday with Mom) We packed our day with: 1) A big breakfast that sweet Grandma made-yum! 2) Videos and playtime 3) Bible study outside 4) Got haircuts followed by a fun bubbly bath 5) Computer game time 6) Yummy snack of rasin bread with peanut butter 7) LOTS of exploring while on a hike 8) Movie 9) Filling dinner of hamburgers, fries and salad 10) Sweet sleep!

The exploring adventure we had today was awesome! Our backyard opened a whole new world of forest, prairie (or what's more like a wide clearing) jungle and winding river. We each handpicked our own special sticks to help protect us and clear the way. We looked out for each other as we made our way through the thick shrubs and wild plants and observed cool things (like a deer's nest, fallen tree covered in moss) along the way. The boys and I took some pictures of our journey--here they are.
