Baby Turtle

Some recent random shots.

This is how they entertained themselves during Spring Break. Some masked wrestling in the yard and we also piggysat their class guinea pigs.

Jackson & Shiny

Ellie & Butterball

They were great caretakers and gave the pigs LOTS of love (and celery).

Coquina Beach (our personal fav). We drive on most Sundays after church and spend the day. It's gorgeous. The kids love it and so do we. Jackson found a very cool shell.

Then, after swimming in the freezing water it was time for some sunny Mommy snuggling.

Happy Love Day

Jackson worked for 2 solid weeks doing 26 personalized Valentine paintings for his class.

OBX Beached Whale

What a beautiful creature. What a sad thing when this happens. It's rare to see here on the Outer Banks so it made for quite an attraction.

Snowy day in OBX

I'm so behind with this post but still wanted to post our snow day pictures. We had a fun time while it lasted. Luckily, it's sunny here now.

Jackson, the fisherman.

The avid fisherman.

He's been fishing for about year now without a hook. At Christmas he graduated to a lure with hook. It's been evident that he loves the sport because he continues to go for it with never having caught a thing. He'll cast for hours over and over again. I'm always amazed at the patience he has for being a five year old boy. I just hope that the day he does catch a fish that he doesn't fall into the water over the sheer shock of it! What a day that will be!
