Disaster.  Capital D.  We arrived at lunchtime…too late and too close to nap time.  Poor planning on our part.  Thank goodness for a concession-stand style outdoor cafe and the hot dogs on their menu.  Heidi was averse to walking on trail or off trail, among other things, depending on whatever our preference was.  Wyatt was as happy as he could be.  I guess that’s nearly two and nearly seven months.  They did enjoy the animals in the petting zoo and the ponies in the pasture.  The half-day outing we planned turned into an hour and a half outing very quickly.  Despite all that, we did have fun and enjoyed the scenery and the day…azaleas popping, air smelling sweet, family time.

First trailhead after lunch, Heidi stops dead in her tracks, squats, sets her drink down, picks up two handfuls of rocks and puts them in her mouth.  Seriously.  When told to spit them out, she did so one at a time as if out of a pea shooter. 

Happy on the bridge.

Swinging will fix a bad mood anytime!  Heidi loves to swing and this was Wyatt’s first time in the swing.  He of course loved it too!
