instagram: painted toes
Today I took the girls to their first mani/pedi. Chloe loved it; Camille hated it. But we all now have good-looking toes for the beach!!

When we returned from our bike ride over to Avondale for the STEAMFestATL, we treated ourselves to popsicles from King of Pops on the square. Yum!

Not only did Chloe get chocolate milk at RenFest, but Rob ate chocolate covered bacon. Was this a Renaissance specialty?
instagram: Yum! Turtle Food
Camille “accidentally” dumped a few weeks worth of turtle food into Dumbledore’s cage. Instead of cleaning it, she just let it all float there. I’m hoping that the turtle doesn’t explode! Gazoo just loves turtle food and sat on top of the cage all evening inhaling her favorite aromas.

Camille has been working harder on studying and homeschooling this year, and it looks like it has paid off! She did much better on her National Latin Exam this year (Level II) than last year! Alas, she’s decided that this is her final year of Latin after seven years of study.
instagram : shorter hair
I don’t have much time now as I try to make up for everything that I fell behind on during our spring break trip and get ahead before we leave for our next trips … But I managed to squeeze in getting a very needed haircut at the salon across the street.

Chloe worked on logic puzzles while Camille read New Yorker while waiting in line at Taqueria del Sol ….
instagram: visitor, departing
As I sit here, back at the grind — trying to catch up and also to get ahead, we had a visitor arrive … a mourning dove! After a short visit, he (she?) flew off just as I was trying to take a photo. Camera shy, I suppose …
instagram: Easter Flowers
The weekend flew by as we worked to regroup after our spring break adventure. Laundry, cleaning, photo organizing, egg-dyeing, bunny cake baking. Crazy Chloe also went tree climbing and running with Rob …
instagram: life is good
Still not finding decent wi-fi, but 3G is allowing me to keep up, at least. SGI (St. George Island) is just lovely… A wonderful place to enjoy our last night of spring break, for sure….
instagram: good morning, florida
We are undecided about what to do today … Chloe’s happy riding her bike and defending our site from the squirrels ….
Instagram: Decatur Morning
I went out early to get some coffee and found the roads closed for the marathon. I don’t know if I’ve ever seen Decatur this quiet before …
Instagram: Evening stroll
After dinner at Ted’s (read Chloe’s review), we went for a short stroll up W PdL.

Most of the day was quite nice in Decatur. But then, it was time for me to go out and pick Chloe up. And that’s whn the tiny, powerful storm hit. Soaked to my knees.

Instagram: BFFs
After we stayed up late so camille could bake cookies for Chloe’s class (more on that later), Chloe fell asleep in my bed. As usual, Gazoo found her way to cuddle Chloe. I have no idea why that cat loves Chloe so much, but she really does…

It was a lovely day in Decatur today as the girls and I walked about taking care of errands.
instagram: sunday morning on arabia mountain
Today, not only did the girls and I get in a nice hike at Arabia Mountain, but Camille also helped me straighten out my Instagram issues. Hopefully, I’ll start using it a little more now!!
reflections – 31 dec 2011
Today we wandered around Blue Ridge for quite a bit. Chloe didn’t get these ornament trees, but I like the reflections we could see in them.
