It is hard to believe three years have passed since Cara Hsiu-Wen joined our family. Three amazing years...
We let Cara choice the family event this year and her vote was for a hike. Probably mostly because she wanted a bar (she gets a Clif bar when we go hiking, and only then), but then she did seem to have a lot of fun once we were there. The weather wasn't exactly wonderful, so we stuck fairly close to home in case a rapid retreat was necessary, with a visit to the much loved St. Edwards Park. Cara was able to enjoy the hike more than ever, despite the cold drizzle. She ran down part of the trail, splashed in the water by the lake, ran back up much of the trail and still had energy for the playground at the top. Wow!
The other big thing for the day - C has a new camera lens. Yes, it got lots of exercise!
There she goes, bar power!
Speeding across the bridge...
Feet don't even touch the ground.
Hanging out by the lake.
Water...
and sand...
is happiness.
Enough energy left to run up the hill.
And try
catching
a ring.
