turtles and fish and water... oh my!






We went back to Fox run last weekend for more adventures, we started at the ponds and, oh wow, there were turtles in the pond, Colin's favorite! They are pretty skidish so we didnt get to get real close, but they thought this was SO COOL!!!




Then we walked all around the park, Gavin saw porcupines, altough you might know them as pinecones, we got a big kick out of that! The boys loved hiking through the woods we had quite an adventure, looking at each stick and rock and bug on the way. Then we found the playground, it was like the day couldnt have gotten better for the boys, cute enough they found a seesaw.
We started our treck back to the ponds where we had started, on the way Colin picked up a rock oh i think about every 2 inches or so. Once his hands got to full one would drop out and a new would go in. We all know he loves rocks but this was a bit much, but i let him do his thing. The second he saw the ponds he souts "water water" runs right to the edge and puts his rocks down very carefully and throws each one individually in the water. i had no idea when he was picking them up he had his own idea on what he was going to do! This was the cutest thing i think i have seen.










Right before we left we walked by the last pond and we spotted fish, gold fish, (as Gavin reminded us, it was just like his snacks) there were people there feeding them, they were nice enough to let us share and the boys got to feed them as well. So i think overall outdoors are the place for us!! Oh and Nolan simply slept the entire time i think he liked the fresh air as well!! Here are some more pictures...
