canoeing

A few weeks ago we took the girls canoeing. They loved seeing all the wildlife--we spotted tons of different birds, an alligator gar, turtles, swans, ducks, and even a few water moccasins in a tree! Joel steered our boat just a little too close to these snakes--I almost jumped overboard--my part of the boat was right next to them. They didn't move at all though and left us alone! If you look closely, you can see them in the middle of the picture.


Here's a pic of the girls using their field guides to identify birds. Willa kept insisting that everything she saw was a road runner. We tried to explain to her that road runners live near roads, but she wouldn't have any of it. "No! It says right here that it's a road runner so I know that it's a road runner. My book says so."
