Part 3...The Nature Walk

After playing on the playground, Lily followed Liana over to the grassy area. Liana picked up a stick, so Lily picked one up to and started running.

Here she is just as happy as can be watching her new friends.

Jamie and I are learning about sand spurs in this photo. We had no idea what those were, so David and Beth were teaching us a bit about life in their part of the woods. :0)

Liana was enjoying being carried around by Jamie--

We were walking across a bridge, but the girls kept stopping to see things in the water. This time, I think they had found a turtle or some lily pads... whatever it was- they were loving it.

Marah was getting in on the action, too. They were discovering everything.

Lily and Marah took a walking break for a moment on their Father's shoulders.

We were on this bridge that overlooked the waterfall. The girls found a baby caterpillar. They sat their and watched this caterpillar forever.

Here we are continuing our nature walk. Notice Lily's hand... in Liana's.

This is my favorite picture. I just love this picture of the girls hand-in-hand with their shadows behind them. Lily has never responded to a child the way she has with Liana. They clicked so quickly.

Come back tomorrow for pictures of the fun in the sand!
