Llamas and Minnows

Jiles successfully completed her water exploration class last week!  She is more comfortable in the water and will be swimming before we know it.  I don't have any pics since I was in the water with her, but we had a blast!  Here are some pics from the week....


We got to meet Cousin Briggs...
it was his first time in the pool!
Pool party at Great Uncle Dominic's and Aunt Lisa's!

She loves her new water shoes, thanks Tio!



She was saying "weeeee" right before this.

Picking her minnow for the minnow Races...
Dropping the minnow at the starting line...
And they're off...
Her minnow never made it to the finish line,
but Jiles and Pa made a great team!
Jiles didn't win the minnow race, but she was the
"Fat Fish Tuesday" winner!!!
She won this t-shirt for having the biggest fish!

Raspberries

Spencer Farm - Noblesville, IN
My Grandparents took my brother and I to this farm to pick strawberries when we were little.  I'm so happy to carry on this wonderful tradition with Jiles.  The strawberries were done for the year so we picked raspberries instead.  It was a fun morning and brought back a lot of memories!!!
