Spring Creek/Break

The kid's Spring Break was last week and we mostly stayed home...but we took a quick over night trip to Grandpa and Grandma-Nana Boyd's house aka Spring Creek.

It POURED down rain for most the time there...

but we were able to take advantage of a beach walk during a "lite drizzle" time :)

 Here's the kids and Grandpa on the BIG ROCK....this rock used to seem huge when I was a kid...but after the many years of high water shifting the beach around.....it's not as huge ;)

 Not many "iceburgs" this year...just some soft- melting snow piled up.

*about 3 days after we were visiting...the river rose so much from all the rain and runoff that the beach is covered with water*

Grandpa and Clara waiting and calling for Zoe (their dog) to come up from the beach

Playing so nicely

Grandma-Nana loves her rocks...so on our beach rock we were suppose to find some small, flat rocks for a project she had planned.  So the kids found more than one - of course ;)

Then we washed them, let them dry and made rock pocket pets (pictures soon)

 
They also got to assist Grandpa in making rolls and Cinnamon Rolls

YUMMY!!

Thanks for the fun times
