September 4

The outside has saved our day more than once, and this was no exception as we find our way back into home and routine...

Finding Spotted Jewelweed and looking for the "fatties" - the bulging seeds ready to spring

Nature journals, snacks and ladybugs

Visiting green stink bug

Of course we ended up in the creek! Raccoon tracks, crayfish hunt, fairy boats out of nut hulls...all good. After many ups and downs, the day ended with bike riding - a new thing for these girls, and they had a blast...
