Spring has sprung here in the Great Northwest and we celebrated by taking a little adventure hike yesterday to collect treasures. I found a pinecone, some moss, a worm and lots of sticks. I found a lot of flowers, too, but mom was pretty adamant about not putting those in my treasure bag, so I just smelled them, instead. Too bad. They would have made a heck of an addition to my treasure chest.

Mom and I played hooky from work and school today and went to the park to celebrate and evade the truant officers.


I made lots of pies, but because my mom gets kind of grouchy about too much sugar, I can be seen here assuring her that this pie is "without any ice cream, candy or sugar."

Happy Springtime!
