Slow Sunday Afternoon on the Creek

The kids and Lar and I all did some exploring on the creek that runs through our property. I guess it use to be clear and easy to travel but since Katrina moved through here a few years ago and knocked down tons of trees its not so easy going. The water is as low as its been so we headed down stream to see what was around the bend and the next bend and so on. We climbed over a lot of logs and found some really neat coves and outlets. The dogs came with us for a while and then headed back home to wait. Some areas we had to wade up to our waist but mostly knee high or lower. We found a fast moving area with a lot of clams and small fish. So we sat there for a while and enjoyed the cool water and Alli caught the clams and Nick and Lar caught a small fish to bring home. They set up an aquarium when we got home and put the fish in it. We will have to take Makayla back there when she gets home from camp.

You guys by far have the coolest family. It is fun to see you hanging out in your little slice of Heaven and just really enjoying one another's company. I am sure there are rough times that we don't see - but overall - I think that God's love just radiates from your little tribe.

Love you guys and can't wait to hang out with you at the beach!
