Our "hike" today for leaves!

This morning Parker wanted to do something "fun." So I came up with the idea of heading to Rotary Park to hike on the trails in search of leaves. Leaves for what you ask? Well for animal art of course. The boys loved the hike and our search for the best leaves to collect. We even had time for some creek stompin and rock throwing.
My poser. He turned around and bent down after I told Parker to turn around and look at me.

Looking for a walking stick like his brother's of course.
Parker announced we were taking a rest here.

Afraid the water was deep enough to go in his boots.

We had fun on our hike today, but we didn't get a chance to do our animal pictures yet. Maybe tomorrow. We have a lot of leaves to choose from thanks to our handy dandy leaf pickers.
Coley is not tolerating this new antibiotic-Augmentin. This morning he threw up twice from it and then had diarrhea this afternoon several times. It hurt/burned so bad that he would walk to me in a straddle postition after he went. He hiney is RED. I'll be calling the doctor in the
morning. All that after only 3 doses. I didn't give him a second dose today. Poor thing.
