At the General Women's meeting in March.  Our stake has a big meet and greet activity before the meeting that is always a lot of fun.  Going with my girls reminds me of going with my mom when we lived close together.

These are a couple of art projects Jillian completed at SparkStudios, the Firehouse's after school program.  Good job Jilly!!

Nature Walk

We are blessed to live near a nature trail!  Jorja, Logan, and I went walking on it a few weeks ago.

There are a lot of clam shells near the river.  This is a big one!!

Kinsey LOVES playing in the water.  I couldn't get a great picture of her because she was jumping around and exploring so much.

Kinsey also loves to go on walks.  She's watching Jorja and Logan go up and down the hill (see next pictures).  Her tongue does not usually hang out like this was she was panting pretty hard.  

Group selfie!!!

Fourth Grade Zoo Field Trip

I got to go to the Kansas City Zoo with Jorja's 4th grade class a few weeks ago.  The weather was perfect, except for a few rain drops but that didn't stop us!!  It was fun being with my Jorja-girl!  I gave her my camera and for the most part these are pictures she took.

Jorja with her two besties, Ana, in front, and Hailey, in back.

I loved this!  The zookeepers have trained the hippos to put their big chins on top of the fence to show they are hungry.  We saw a feeding demonstration!!

The kids were studying African animals so we went on a tour of the Africa section.  Jorja got an ostrich, zebras, and giraffes in this picture!

The classes were split up into small groups to study a particular African animal.  This is Jorja with her group, Alli, Joe, Lilly.  They studied the endangered Amur leopard.

Jorja loved how this gorilla came right up to the window!

Fourth grade kiddos!!
