Kids fishing pond ~ June 04

Didn't get any good ones of Az or Libby but they were both there having a fun time!

This last photo was taken just moments before a tremendous dust storm hit. We were literally running for the safety of the car; totally caught off guard! It was crazy!

"WHAT'S UP???"

A WEE BIT SCRUNCHED BUT CHECK OUT THOSE DIMPLES!

SURPRISED LOOK!

Frogs & Lily Pads

The water lillies have been blooming WONDERFULLY this year. We have about 5 or 6 young bullfrogs in our pond & some tadpoles as well. And, of course about 50-60 fish, most of which were from last year's spawn...who knows how many little baby fish are in there now. Anyone want some fishies? Bring a net!!!

Up a Creek...

Az, the ever helpful BIG BROTHER!

My big kids! I was sitting on a stump feeding the baby & taking pictures. We had a fun morning on the trail.

The kids & I went on a little morning "hike" on the trail. May 21st, 2009

There was a lot of water play in the little creek that runs through the canyon.

She's wearing a dress that my Grandmother, Maxine, made for ME when I was a baby!
