Visit

While Nat was here we had a full schedule to things we saw/did

*Rode bikes along the National Mall

*Visit to the National Zoo, to see the pandas that were not out

*A day trip to Philly: Liberty bell, Constitution hall and Ben Franklin children museum and leaving at rush hour so we could spend 1 hour getting onto the freeway :)



*A visit to Annapolis, walking around the naval academy in the bitter cold

*Playing at the park with the girls

*A visit to the D.C. temple

*M & S serenading N with their clarinet/sax duo, the learned O' Canada in class the week before

Brace Free...

kind of
one got them off, the other got hers on :)
That's the way things are going to roll around here

The first thing S ate was a stick of gum then,
licorice
laffy taffy and
some more gum
She looks great

Weekend

What did you do this past weekend?
We enjoyed the semi-warm weather and sunshine
Riding bikes through our nations capital

It was a fun day

Life

I look back at the last post, made at the first of February...

where has time gone??

I'm not sure

I do know that I have been busy experimenting in the kitchen with garbanzo bean flour, coconut flour and a lot of other flours that I had never heard of before last month

Playing hostess again, it's fun! We have not had visitors for awhile

this visitor was extra special, Aunt Nat who is leaving on a mission next month

Working in the yard and garden

and a multitude of other exciting things!
