The kids went with Daryl and my Dad to the Kalamazoo Nature Center this morning for the Maple Sugar Festival. Me? I sat at Panera Bread and worked on my CEUs so I don't lose my nursing license! I was disappointed to miss the fun morning but it was a special time for the kids with their Daddy and their Grandpa.

| This isn't the greatest picture of Hope, but I still love it! They watched a birds of prey show and this owl was one of the birds that participated in the show. |

It pays to know people who work/volunteer at the Nature Center! Mr Chase is a long time friend of my family and when he saw the kids he got a snake out of one of the cages and asked the kids if they'd like to touch it.

| Hope got her face painted! Samuel and Hope both got tattoos on their hands. Aliyah wasn't sure about either one but she did bring her tattoo home so that Mommy could put it on her hand! |

| A winter walk to the maple sugar shack out in the woods! Last year when we went to the Maple Sugar Festival (same weekend) we rode our bikes out to the Nature Center and the temp was in the 70s!! But this year the weather is much better for maple sugar as well as for the fruit farmers! |
