I caught a Frog, and found a snail, But not a Salamander!

All Day Monday Josh, the kids, and I were in the woods! It was EXHAUSTING. We managed to get 7 loads of wood for my parents however, so that was good! My husband was a slave driver! After lunch I wanted a rest, but he said just leave the kids with mom to nap and we can be much faster! So much for using the kids as an excuse!

Without the kids to scare the frogs away I did manage to catch one on the first try.....Hayden was really excited.

The puddles were small, but the kids loved them.

This was the 3rd trip....I was getting tired!

When we were unloading Velvet found some flowers!


                                                                  And a mud puddle!



Here is the snail! Hayden thought it was really neat how it came in and out of its shell.


The kids are loving the no Car seat woods trips!


Hayden thinks this is Funny.

Here is one of the salamanders that refused to get close to shore so I could grab it!


Before we came home I made Hayden let his Frog go.



Today Velvet was all smiles. Her, Hayden, and I joined the Library!


 We tried to go outside...The rain was not helpful!

 This plant is taking over..I gave some to Nancy and Lindsey...How are yours? Need any more?
Well that is it for today! I am still tired from going to the mountains! I plan on resting tomorrow! I agreed to work Thursday and Friday so I will have $ to spend on the Kids Saturday....
