Devil's Den

We hiked...
(Using the timer to take pictures!)
...and saw snakes, lizards, toads, and huge birds....
We caved....
...and then we played for hours in the beautiful stream...
Yes, Fred even snapped a picture here and there with me in it!
The Drama of boys!
And, oh yes, there was SAND!!
Yesterday was one of those oh-so-fantastic family days
that I hope will stay in my memory forever!!
This Little Lad was so joyful, surrounded by rocks and water.

beautiful pictures! i can't believe how big your little one is! i'm sorry i don't leave you notes more often!

hey, i wanted to tell you a couple things. when you enter your http: on my comments - it's linking back to your virtual homeschool room post instead of your entire site(which of course i don't mind, but thought you might!) i think if you just retype the whole address next time, then maybe it will fix it.

secondly, the pic sizes.. i use wordpress and have a different layout than normal (which the header thing is kinda botherin' me, but someday..) anyway, if you ever change your html on blogger you can expand the dimensions of the main layout and equally make the sidebars less pixels. keeping the whole thing equaling the same. does that make any sense? also, i don't know if the auto photo uploader on blogger can be changed, but i'm sure it can - somewhere, somehow. if you have any questions, just let me know! i'm all about tinkering!

GREAT pics! I love Little Lad enjoying the water spray. And Fred took a photo?! He did a great job. It is beautiful up here, too! I could get used to this weather. Do you think there is any way to ward off the coming inferno?! :-) Hope you have a fantastic week!

Okay, this has nothing to do with your post... but I just wanted to tell you what a small world it was! I was skimming through your posts and was like, "Hey! How does Wendy know Vu Ha?!" Your bro-in-law was one of my very best friends from high school!!!! We went to elementary school together, I moved, then we became long-term penpals! What a small world....

Love,

Ellen! How nice to hear from you!

Oh, yes, Vu is one of our clan now. (I have great hilarious pictures of him, if you are interested!-Ha!)

These qualifications might get you into the inner circle of family fun night...oh, yes, it's quite a privilege!

Did you know that Amy and Vu are about to have their baby boy? She is past her due date now, and will be induced on Wednesday. :-)

Keep in touch!
