We have neglected our blog. There. I said it. We have been so captivated with the ease of Facebook that we have not update our blog since MAY 2009... what is up with that?
On a recent warm Spring day, we could not wait to enjoy the day by hiking one our favorite trails. William brought his magnifying glass and made all sorts of discoveries about tree bark, bugs, leaves, rocks and sticks!

Beautiful...cool breeze from the water...loud...loved it!
We spent our Easter vacation in Mississippi visiting Grandpoppy and the rest of the Covington clan! We had a wonderfully relaxing trip and enjoyed spending so much time with our family! Dave spent quite a bit of time fishing at the pond....hours and hours....casting and reeling!!

Walking to the Cherry Blossom Festival parade...guess what we stumbled upon!
Our road trip continued with a drive through some very rural parts of California...we even met a cow named "40-20." We met the cow in the road and Mommy had to do some sweet talking to get him to move.
We eventually arrived at Point Reyes Lighthouse - built in 1870 to warm vessels away from a treacherous coastline.
Point Reyes is the foggiest place in the Pacific Coast. The lighthouse was built about 300 feet down the bluff...the walk down is pretty easy...the walk up is sure to get your blood pumping. Mommy and Daddy both made the trek (separately to avoid me getting in any trouble).We learned that approximately 78 million jelly beans are stored in the factory at any time...so...subtract the 3,000 we ate on the tour...and that leaves...ah...Mommy...can you help me with the math...please?!
