Lifting Logs

We walk through the forest all of the time pointing out birds, squirrels, slugs and other animals that may come across the path.  Today I decided it was high time we go off the path.  I lifted up a log and the kids were thrilled by all of the bugs living under it.  We spent another hour lifting logs and observing.  

paxman family

This was the first time the "Darrell & Vicki Paxman" family has been together since before Tanner left on his mission.  We went to California.  The house we stayed in was awesome, it was a mile from Disneyland, had Disney murals on the walls and a swimming pool in the backyard.  The kids were great... Korv and Pepper continue to be buds.  Korv is so sweet and puts up with Peppers bossy ways. After the kids went to bed we would play cards or other such games.  I am so glad we all stayed in the same house where the adults could converse at night, because most of our days were spent chasing around children.  We went to the beach, parks, Disneyland, played pickle ball and did some shopping. And we saw the sun, everyday :)
