We went to this nature preserve near our house today. It was the first time we have been to it. It was fantastic. It's a bummer we didn't know about it earlier. It was the perfect day to go too. It's been a little bit cooler here lately without the humidity. Perfect to be outside. There's a boardwalk for the most part. I like places with boardwalks because I can let Sydney run around and she is still contained!

A little Florida scenery for you. There is a creek that runs through the preserve and out to the boat ramp that we use. Hopefully, we will be able to find the time to kayak or canoe down it.
A few side notes.Sydney and I have been doing art together lately. I bought her some jumbo crayons, markers just for toddlers, and some paints. Crayola has been loving me! She loves it all. Once she is awake, the first place she goes is to the kitchen table to color with crayons. She also really loves the paint. "More please." That is what I hear the whole time because her favorite part is to put more paint on the paintbrush. Here's one of the pictures she drew today.

Matt and I went to this business dinner thing last week. Here's the picture we took on our way out the door. I'm really not much for business dinners but this one was surprisingly pleasant. It was nice to replace the lounge pants and sneakers for a dress and heels - even if it was just for an evening! : )

Did the lil Miss actually let you leave? or was she already asleep. Ya'll are still a cute couple for some old people :). Grandma Karen
Is that the dress you bought when I was down there? It is too cute to crop out...you should have taken a full length shot!!! Syd is looking super cute with the pigtails!!
Matt, holy smokes, you clean up pretty well... for a little brother and all. I love the Syd art. My favorite part is where the Scrapbookin' momma dated it in the corners. (Yeh, I do that too.)

My kids would love that nature preserve. And I'd love the boardwalk as well since I have my own monkey to chase around. I don't think I could handle the heat, though. I can barely handle it here. And I grew up in Texas and everything!
