Friday's Pictures

The boys took a day off from school work yesterday and did Friday's work today.  We spent the morning outside, did a hike with Jen's family, and then Carter and Rylan had art class in the late afternoon.

Our hollys in the front yard are covered in hundreds of ladybugs.  I've never seen so many in one place before!

The boys have still been spending a lot of time each day in their hammocks.  One of our neighbors has started copying them too :)

We went to Cheeks Bend Bluff View with Jen's family in the afternoon.  The boys and I did this hike a couple of months ago.  It's relatively flat, about 2 miles roundtrip, and has a cool cave to explore.  I figured this was different from all the waterfalls we've done lately and was a good option for our different ages.

This guy looks like he spends a lot of time in the woods :)

We also did some more science and tried to identify more wildflowers.  Here's what we think we found:

False Garlic (Nothoscordum Bivalve)

False Rue-Anemone (Enemion Biternatum)

  Violet Wood Sorrel (Oxalis Violacea)

Fire Pink (Silene Virginica)

We haven't figured this one out yet :)
