Morning at the nature center

Every Thursday this past winter we got together with a group of Moms and their kids from church for play group. It has been a great way to learn to know other moms in the area. I am so thankful for the new friends I am making.
On Monday a few of us went to a local nature center for an outing. It was fun. We searched in vain to find the spot where we could feed chickadees from our hands. In the end we fed our precious bird seed to a squirrel. We think this happens often because the squirrels were lurking along the path and would willing come surprisingly close.

We had to take a break for the babies to eat. This is nature lessons with Jessica. They were looking for frogs and turtles.
