Visiting Pinckney Island






We live about 5 miles from this beautiful nature preserve on the intercoastal waterway. We packed a picnic lunch and the double stroller and headed out one April morning for a little adventure. We held snails, watched fiddler crabs crawling in and out of their holes, saw a racoon headed into the marsh as well as many birds in the trees. Dan and James found a hidden lagoon with a big alligator and a surprise butterfly garden.

Easter 2009





We had quite a few Easter egg hunts leading up to Easter Sunday. Halle and James enjoyed them all. Uncle Adam came to visit Easter weekend. The Easter bunny brought mini hula hoops as well as lots of other toys and candy. Our relatives outside of South Carolina sent Easter goodies for us all. We were spoiled for sure.

Leprechauns at Play

We enjoyed a March day outdoors at Hampton Lake.

Wild Man, Hayes, is 8 Months Old






Hayes is full speed ahead, crawling everywhere, pulling up on anything, and learning to do new things everyday. He is a happy baby and keeps us all smiling.

February Fun






In February, aside from celebrating James' third birthday, we went to our friend's Barrett and Brodie's third birthday at their grandparents' farm. We got to see chickens, turkeys, peacocks, and horses. Halle and James rode mini four wheelers, enjoyed a delicious lunch with cupcakes, and swung from giant swings beneath a huge oak tree. February lent us a few, warm winter beach days as well.
