With Rod off and home with us, we've been going going going and doing doing doing. Lots of fun, lots of exhaustion - will be hard getting back on schedule/into a routine!!
Rod worked into the first week of June, then we immediately hit the road for a beach vacay - but I'm still sifting through nearly 2,000 photos from that trip, so we'll skip it for now. ;)
We'd heard about this place, Tanyard Creek, since moving here a year ago (can you BELIEVE it's been a year ago since we left our old lifestyle, which in some way felt like it lasted a lifetime, since it was indeed the lifetime of the kids prior to here??), but we had yet to check it out. So, finally, I said let's do it. So we went!!

| Always inquisitive |

| Mmm, wild asparagus (AKA smilax!) |
We made it to the creek - aaaaah, perfect!!
 |
| Throwing rocks |
 |
| Getting braver! |
Not sure the point of this photo... Reed sitting on balance bike (just to try it out, it's hidden in attic now actually), but check out those storm clouds!!
Picking blueberries!! Right after this, we headed to the raspberry patch and picked 3 pints of those too!
Are these shirts perfect, or what?!?
Playdate!
We're working on it...

We loved Tanyard Creek so much, we went back with the Turnbaughs! This time we came armed with nets, goggles and puddle jumpers. Anita took these pics.
