Down By The River

In March the kids and I went to visit my mom.  While we were there we took many walks down to - what Nana referred to as - the "river".  I put river in quotes because it was just a dried up nesting ground for mosquitoes and bugs.  But we had a good time nonetheless.

We found these cool benches along the trail.  They were freshly stained which is why we're standing and not sitting.

Bella touched the wet bench and was not very happy her hands were dirty.

Not sure what's happening here on the balancing log!

They kids loved showing off their precious finds.

Noah traveled in style.

Bella took a few goodies home.

Another cool bench.

Quincy came with us on our adventures.

If you look closely near Beau's arm you'll see the letter K inscribed in the bench.  We told the kids it was a special Kesterson bench. 

Ever wonder what Joel does while we're away?  Well, here it is.  He plays snooker all night long.
