Hiking & A Playdate

Emma & TJ at the Botanical Gardens, mid-hike.

Emma is such a lover. TJ, however, is NOT always in the mood to reciprocate!

Emma found a BIG walking (or swinging) stick today!

Taking a rest at the end of the hike.

Emma & Gavin at the International Playdate. They are very seriously taking care of some work on the computer. Or, as little Clare told me, they "had to load something."


Today we went out to the Botanical Gardens at UCR again for a little hike. Grandma & TJ went with us too. The kids had fun, even though it was hot out and Emma insisted on being carried for a bit. We got to see fish, turtles, spiders, and lots of lizards today. Emma sure loves the animals. Then, after coming home for a mid-afternoon nap, Emma & I went back out for another playdate. We had a great time as usual. I love these days and wish they could last longer. I can't believe I have to be back at work on Monday...
