As you do

It's winter in Perth. I'm sure you can tell. If we sit inside longer than five minutes, our fingers and toes start to go numb. The secret is not to sit inside...











We've been pelted with a lot of rain and battered by strong winds lately (ah, winter storms!), so this weekend's weather seemed especially sweet! The girls are always happy to just be at home on the weekends. Normally, Mama and Papa are good with that on Saturday but get itchy feet by Sunday. Not so this weekend. We just soaked up the easy life, enjoying a delicious picnic lunch on our table outside before realizing it was warm enough to head to the river for some fun. Dolphins greeted us as we walked to the shoreline, but alas, they swam away before we could get the kayak in the water.

This afternoon, the weather was still beautiful so I treated the girls to ice cream cones and playtime at the beach. Life in Perth (in winter!) is so tough...

Great, wonderful, delightful pictures! That little Stephanie had quite a catch in her butterfly net! And I especially loved the one with pink toenail polish on the toes and many little starfish!
