First day of summer vacation

Yesterday was our first full day of summer vacation for Taylor and myself.  We played outside, took a walk on the nature trail, strolled along the bridge, dug in the dirt, watered the garden (and pulled up a chive plant for the fun of it- thanks, Taylor!), weeded the backyard, pruned a multitude of neglected bushes, took two baths, watched excerpts from the movie Cars, made homemade ice cream, ate ice cream with Papa, tried new recipes for salmon and crab cakes for dinner, and finally snuggled before heading off to bed.  Whew- I was definitely tired at the end of the day!  It sure was fun though!  I'll post about today's events later on (just a heads up though- it was much more laid back).

Check out this face - he had had enough of the camera by this point!
