Fearless Nature Boy, The Cloud Game, and Mother's Day

Here is a recap of our Mother's Day...

Grammy Snail came over and played some M&M Math.

We went to "The Clubhouse Pond" for a family potluck.

Great-Grandmother Snail loved her flower brooch.

Whenever we are at The Clubhouse, we have to play in the sand with a cup and a spoon.

Photobucket
We found TWO more Southern Leopard Frog egg sacs like the other one we found (in this post). We were sad that they were empty.

Big Snail walked into the pond to try to catch some tadpoles. This is one of my proudest moments as a mom so far. I am so happy that my nature boy isn't afraid to walk right into a pond.

Photobucket
Yes...these are his good "Sunday shoes."

Photobucket
I thought I would share a picture of my house. Okay...it's not my house. This house is down the road from our "Clubhouse Pond."

Photobucket
We are always playing the cloud game in the car. Big Snail said, "Momma, it's an elephant!" I had to take a picture of this one because usually, they really don't look like what we say they are. Do you see it?

Obviously, I am online too much today.

The clubhouse sounds and looks like fun. Glad your Big Snail isn't afraid to get "dirty" too...even in church clothes. Sigh.

I certainly did see the elephant.

Beautiful house...even if it isn't yours!

I think there's always one kid who insists on playing with their good Sunday shoes the whole time.

Looks like a fun weekend!

We enjoyed our visit today. Sorry it seemed so rushed! Can't wait till next week!

Let me know when you want to go to WalMart all alone :)

Great Grandmother Snail is just precious! I have no living grandparents...may I live vicariously through you? :o)

Awww..Yes, I can see the elephant in the clouds! How fun! ;)
It looks like you had a wonderful Mother's Day...What a lovely time with your family, how nice!

Such beautiful pictures of a wonderful family of snails!

BTW, whenever you see pics of snails on my blog, it's because they are picked specially for you.

Before reading the caption, I looked at the picture and thought, oh, an elephant. :)
I absolutely love your pictures.

Thanks for the nice comment you left about the party I threw for my daughter. It was a lot of fun. The Princess and the Pea game is still talked about!

I look forward to checking out your blog more. I saw the elephant right away! It looks like you had a beautiful Mother's Day.

I think I would fail m&m math as most would go into my mouth :) You take beautiful pictures and yes I can see the elephant. I can't wait to read more of your blog too.

Looks like you had a wonderful Mother's Day. Your kids are adorable, and yes, I see the elephant!
Blessings,
Shannon

Looks like you had a fab weekend! And yes, I see the elephant!

I love your new look! We saw elephants today at the zoo-they looked just like your clouds!!!

Before you take my images, you'd better ask me first. I request that if, and when, you use my information and pictures, you provide proper credit and citation. A link back to my blog is nice, too. I love to give permission to really nice people. In fact, I have never said no. If you steal anything from my site, I get to be mean to you. Really mean. And I am smart enough to catch you being sneaky, too.
