lotus

Another trip to the Kenilworth Aquatic Gardens... Abigail didn't remember her last visits in 2009, or 2010. This time she brought her own camera and took lots of pics.  The first three here are from her camera, the rest Jamie took.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

self portraits

Give a 5 year old a camera and she will take 10,000 totally goofy self-portraits and then land on a few genuinely sweet (and some still a little silly) ones.

camping

Successful first family camping adventure this weekend ... luckily with some friends with more camping-with-kids experience.  Cunningham Falls is a beautiful spot.

Four campers thinking hard about what campfire time would be like without unnecessary rules from parental figures about sticks + fire.

Natester enjoyed some hammock time.

Oh sweet s'mores and jumbo marshmallows.

Jamie takes on bedtime story time with the pj gang.

dinner with friends

Dinner with buddies Georgia and Sophie. What is up with Nate's photo face these days?

A+N at Great Falls a couple of weeks ago...a chilly spring day!

report from abby

This note from Abby was hanging on the front door when we got home on Friday. "Nate not listening to Bertha."

Bertha, our nanny, had a more detailed story to tell of the day's events.

Sunny Saturday at a lavender farm... Abby is very good at harvesting lavender and making bouquets.

The Rainbows celebrated a great year of pre-K with singing, breakdancing, and rainbow cake. Yippee!
