We brought 13 home and watched

them grow for a few days...

but then felt like they should go

back to the creek so we set them free

"The Edge of the World" Trail

Dawsonville, GA

Pretty water rapids

The water was cold....

but that didn't stop anyone!

A spot off Steele Bridge Road that

teenagers were lining up to jump off and

take the plunge into the river

A hike on the Steele Bridge trail that

led to your own personal spot on the

creek to fish and swim

Easter and The Outdoors

The Etowah River

Brandon showing Faith some fishing skills

Cole and Faith

Wading through the river to the middle...
the water was cold and the
current was strong

Cole fishing

After getting in the river for
a while Milla spent time
trying out filters on the shore

Just hanging out on the riverbank

Cole kept eating all the fish bait...
he loved the cold corn from a can!

*Dude Perfect All Sports Golf Challenge*
Brandon set up a 6 hole golf course
with 6 American flags around our house...
First we played with a football (you score
like golf---how many throws, tosses, hits or
rolls it takes you to get to the flag)...
then a tennis racket and ball, then a
baseball and bat, then basketball,
then a golf ball! It was so fun!

Easter Morning we got to watch
church online.
"What can wash my sins away
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
What can make me whole again
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
Oh, precious is the flow
That makes me white as snow
No other fount I know
Nothing but the blood of Jesus"

Milla

Faith

Cole

Easter brunch salads...
Chicken Salad, Pasta Salad,
and Strawbetty Salad.

We watched our church's online
Good Friday service....

Home Communion

The Amicalola River

They made it to the middle

relaxing on the rocks

Cole lost his 1st tooth on 4/8/20
(he let Milla pull it out!!!)

Milla's class wrote letters to pen pals
in Australia at the beginning of the
year....they wrote back....
One of Milla's teachers hand
delivered all the letters!

Let's go fly a kite!

Deep thoughts

Organizing cars

We got to drive over to see Grandpa
in Cartersville....it was an outdoor,
spaced out social distancing kind
of visit. We had fun visiting and
looking at the pretty yellow fields.
