Picture Post

In trying to catch up for the past week I am going to do a picture post. I hope to be able to post more later. It has been a busy and fun week, culminating in K's 3rd birthday today.

Tuesday morning we headed over to the lake to feed the ducks. We had been hearing the Geese flying overhead in the morning and wanted to see them at the lake. But, we never made it to the end the geese were on, instead stopping to feed the ducks.



MB enjoys playing with EM, a lot. Here she is showing EM her letter sounds.

We went to the art museum on Wednesday when our visit to the zoo was 'hurricaned' out. We enjoyed seeing a lot of african artifacts and art. MB really liked the 5-foot long fish hat that was worn in celebrations and rituals. After visiting the inside exhibits, we walked along the art trail and enjoyed the various outside sculptures.

I have no idea what these things are supposed to be. I just thought that it was a neat picture.



These are vine sculptures. Personally they reminded me of some kinds of huts that one sees in pictures/books on tribal africa. Anyway, that is what I told MB.



The girls were able to go inside and see how they were made.



MB enjoyed looking at the sculptures at the art museum, so when she came home she pulled out the clay and worked for hours.



We finished off the day with ice cream cones.

Thursday we had Co-op and then gymnastics. When we came home, K and I took a nap, while mamaw and MB baked K's birthday cake.

We celebrated K's birthday last night so that my mom could head home today and check on her house after Ophelia made an extended visit along the crystal coast.

Today we are having a quiet, catch-up day.

Peace,

Amy
