DAY OFF OF SCHOOL
The kids had a few days off of school this week so we tried to do a few fun things. The weather was pretty nice outside so we went on a little walk on the Logan River Trail. The kids were very excited and it was nice to let them get some energy out. We stopped at the river to throw rocks and they picked up almost every stick they saw. Brandon took his light saber to protect us from all the bad guys as he put it. (He loves Star Wars.) We had lots of fun. The most exciting part was when they found and adopted Alice, Jack, and Spicey. They are little caterpillars that they found crawling around. We came home and made little homes for them out of glass jars. Then we looked up the little things on the Internet (I love the Internet). We discovered that they are wooly bear caterpillars. The kids are still taking care of them and I hope they stay alive for a while....The kids are imaging what beautiful buterflies they will turn into and I don't have the heart to tell them that they will be moths!!

Lol. I totally remember looking up wooly bear caterpillars too! Great little creatures, and irresistible as a kid.
