Spring Trip - Part Three

Okay, this is the last of the trip, as I have some great stuff to share from regular life, plus tomorrow is M's birthday! Here's my favorite playground (yes, that is THREE STORIES HIGH)!

M and I went for a stroll while Nana and L played - beautiful, yes?

Here's one of the flowers M and I found, amazing huh? There were some gorgeous orange ones too, but this was the sharpest flower shot we took.

And look-y here! Why, if it isn't Mr. Cautious himself, up on the 3rd story!

And here's Mr. Throw-Caution-To-The-Wind sitting in a real chair (just like his big brother), with Mama very close by, of course!


Dying Easter eggs! Like my shirt? It's a gift from one of the schools I went to! L really loved dying the eggs this year!

L wearing his chef hat and apron that the Easter Bunny left him!

Blowing bubbles with Pappy!

On to the Egg Hunt! Mama helping M collect eggs!

L had a blast gathering eggs, but he only liked the plastic ones! The real ones we had dyed were cold from being in the fridge, so they reacted to the humidity and the dye started to come off. L enjoyed smashing them with the heal of his shoe.

Anyways, here he is showing off his found (all plastic) eggs, looking entirely like his uncle Kevin!

Wow. Fearless here fell in love with the tricycle, even though his feet don't come anywhere near close to reaching the pedals (see Spring Trip - Part One for a great little video).

Fascinating...

Look who's smiling for the camera! He has been anti-camera for several months, but we just didn't say anything, and he's coming around (heaven knows, with L, if you make an issue of it, he'll dig his heels in and out-last you; he's going to be a strong leader someday)...

Practice casting!

This island is nearly always occupied (it's a popular camp-spot), but we finally got it all to ourselves. It. Was. Awesome...

At the paybeach (ocean side). So. Much. Fun.

Went back the next day, and L played in the sand, then we ran out into the surf. It was so much fun. Splashed and jumped and held Mama's hand! M splashed in the shallow waves with Nana... Bliss.
Post-beach. He actually slept through a whole photo-session (this is unusual for him). See the blister on M's right foot? That's from his knee-walking.
Okay. This picture freaks me out. That is the back of M's head, but it looks EXACTLY like L's. Anywho - here's M watching his brother have one last romp in the yard with Uncle Kevin (whom they both adore).
One last hug from Unky Kev...
We had a great visit!
