Our Hike





We hiked a little trail on the Santa Rosa Plateau up the street from our house on Memorial Day. It was perfect weather and Brinlee slept quietly away in the snuggli the whole time. It was great. Noah packed himself a lunch, we all ate ours in the car or at home but he wanted to wait until we were actually on the hike to eat, it was cute, maybe he is still a kid (he doesn't think so). He is reading now by the way. It is like magic. He read a page long poem tonight that he got from school. It was incredible. I love that click when they just "get it". At the end of this trail is a little vernal pool with snakes, turtles and fish. We saw many snakes and some little fishies and tadpoles but no turtles. It was pretty fun!

Noah the big kid. Seth wears glasses? So mature.

Ari's going to be jealous of those glasses. By the way, she talks about going to your house AT LEAST 3 times a day. I hope she's not disappointed in the short visit. We're all really excited to see you guys.

Sounds like you are joining the world again. The hike sounds fun. Sometimes fresh air is just the ticket.
