It was a gorgeous day today. The kids had great fun boogy boarding down the river. And mommy had fun taking “sunshine” pictures. This is a field of buttercups. Its actually technically supposed to be lawn..but they were so pretty Rob couldn’t bare to cut them. He’s a brilliant man.
I had missed the sunshine. And all of you who keep complaining about the heat–wouldya shut up please. I’m soooooooooo jealous.
I think that I worship the sun…its cause we see it so rarely. LOL
It was just soooooooooooooo nice to see the sun. To lay on the grass and soak up those U.V. rays. Ooooo could we have two days like that in a row? PLEASE? And here’s Samuel sunbathing on his boogie board. The water is still VERY cold, and really not quite ready for swimming, but we keep trying. *snicker*
Zeria was the one who finally figured out how to float down the river in the “deepest” rapid. They got a pretty good ride going once they finally figured out what I was trying to tell them to do. Too cold for me to actually demonstrate yet.
And look I even include one of me. LOL. The kids got cold after the river, so they went inside and I went and laid on the grass watching our red hot pokers and the hummingbirds that kept coming to feed on them. Such a lazy day.
And yes I tried to take a picture of the hummingbirds, but they weren’t cooperating. This picture is as good as it gets. *giggles*
And one last picture to share that was on my camera from another day. Its too pretty not to share. I found this tide pool sometime last week, and it was so clear, and I found this beautiful seaweed, and just stood their and watched the tidepool for over ten minutes. There was lots of little life in it which I discovered as I watched. But mostly I was just taken by the transluscent seaweed. And thrilled to see I managed to catch it with the camera as well.
Anyhow at last phone call about 7:30 Rob was in Bremerton…which means he should be hear about ten. I’m ready for him to come home. I miss him big time when he’s gone….

hehe. you’re warming up – I’m freezing my butt off. love the humming bird piccy – we havent got them here.
Those are great!!
LOL, You are MORE than welcome to come get said heat anytime now.
I’ll trade you for some cooler weather…although my kids might complain it’s then too cold to swim. 
Oh, I forgot…Neat pictures too!
great pics!
I love all the photos!
So, what is the temperature where you are?
I bet you don’t have near the problem with bugs as we have here. Seems heat is conducive to buggishness!! 
It’s been pretty toasty here, though we got a nice break from the humidity over the last couple of days. We did make our first trip to the pool on Saturday.
Really neat pictures! You did a nice job on them!!
That first picture is unbelievable! I would enter that somewhere. And I’d enlarge and frame it. WOW.
That must be so fun, to have your own river.
Oh, I forgot that I was going to mention an even cooler way to “ride the rapids” than a boogy board…inner tubes. We have shallow rivers here, and tubing is a favorite pasttime.
I love those photos. They are so beautiful. I wish I could take pics like that. WOW!
