In the Jungle (well sort of)

Last Friday we had a family fun day in Spokane. We visited Cat Tales Park, rode the gondolas over the falls, and played at Mobius Kids. What a great day the weather was in the high 50's and the sun was shining! We had lunch at Red Robin one of my favorite places to go with the kids, Yummy! The lion roaring was amazing to hear and you can't tell from the pic but this boy is huge! The first time he roared Connor about jumped out of his pants.

I am stuck on Band-Aids..........

Con and Coco love bandages and think of them as a fashion accessory. They love to adorn themselves, dolls, and stuffed animals with them! I remember Samantha covering her legs with an entire boxes of them when she was that age! Band-Aids and kids just seem to go together.

Joy in the smallest things

The return of hummingbirds to our area is my sure sing that summer has arrived. Last year we had over 20 hummingbirds feeding at our house. Our favorite summer evenings are sitting on the deck and watching them feed. Ours became so tame they would sit on your finger and wait their turn at the feeder. The buzz of hummingbirds in the air is by far one of my favorite sounds.
