Lammoille

On Thursday Kevin, George, Lily, Bri and I took a drive up Lammoille canyon. There is still lots of snow, but the road is cleared to the top and there is a little room for parking. It was a good 20 degrees colder at the top of the canyon than the bottom, but with the 90 degree weather this weekend the snow should be melting fast.





We saw hawks, a badger, lots of beaver ponds, a turkey and a mountain goat. He was way up there hiding in the shade of a cave, but was there. We probably won't see more until next spring, they head up really high and are very shy.

Budding geniuses

The kids like to take pictures too.
Lily brought me the camera one morning.
Help me!



George and Courtney had a photo session on the swing this week.

This spring Mallory has been participating in PAL Track. Girl Loves to Run!
She did long jump, 200m, mile, 4x100m relay

Waiting in the bullpen.

Having a great time. (this is lap 3 of the mile!)

Strong finish

Soccer

Stretching

Warming up, this weeks mini-practice was on throwing in.


Telling all about the goal he just made.


I love how he is smiling at Dad instead of watching the ball.

Outtakes of Lily

For Mother's Day Lee and Leesh asked me to do a photo session of Bri in sorta an Anne Geddensesque style for Leesh's Mom. Lily of course wanted to get in on the action.
