Rick hadn't had a day off for 12 days in a row so when he finally did get a day off, we decided to have a little fun! We all woke up and were lazy on a Saturday morning, at breakfast and had a lazy morning... just what Rick needed after getting up at 5am everyday for the past 12 days. After having a few chill hours in the morning, we decided to all get dressed and head to Clark Park. Brenna and I had been there but nobody else had, so it was fun to all go together. The kids played on the playground for quite a while and then we went on a little mini hike along a walking trail. Then we ended the morning at the Nature Center at the park. Afterward we stopped by Chipotle (I had never tried it before!) and got some fun food to take home and eat.
It was so great to get out and enjoy each other. I feel like sometimes this residency life is tough. The hours are long, and we don't get to spend much time together as a family. There are often times Rick leaves so early and doesn't get home till so late the kids don't even see Rick for days at a time. It's hard, but days like this one help make up for it. I love building relationships with our kids and just getting out and being with each other!

The snapping turtle that had moss growing on
it's back. Apparently they bite and it hurts! I don't
think I've ever seen a snapping turtle before... |
