Never say never...

It's been years since I have been requested to make Ants On A Log, so I figured I would NEVER make those again. But just when you think they have become too 'big', the kid throws you a bone and you get to relive and enjoy for just a few minutes at least, one of those precious toddler moments from the past.

Palm Beach, enclave of the wealthy...

No we didn't unearth a long lost buried cache of gold in the garden, we just spent a fun weekend in West Palm Beach. Started at the Palm Beach Gardens Hilton; $99 a night and that included the best breakfast buffet of which I savored every second of the tummy ache from overindulgence. First stop, Lion Country Safari, it was OK, but even with a found Internet coupon not worth the $$$. Skip it unless the ostrich is your thing.
Next stop John D. MacArthur Beach State Park:

Oh my golly, what a spectacular park and beach; to get to the beach you have to walk across a 1600 foot long bridge over the estuary to get to it...a great way to burn off our morning breakfast.

And being as this is the beginning of turtle nesting season here in FLorida we ended with a visit to the Loggerhead Marinelife Center.

Check out their website if you have a few minutes to burn, they have a turtle cam.

Cousins

We had a new member of the family join us this year for the 2nd Annual DeLaney-Swindal Aquatica Meet up...Hey AJ! What a great way to spend a 91 degree day in the middle of May, we just love this park!

Word Spring Discovery and Jesus Film Project

Two for one field trip with our h'schl group today...We started out at the Word Spring Discovery Center at the Wycliffe Bible Translators and finished with the Jesus Film Project down the street at the Campus Crusades for Christ headquarters. Still trying to wrap my head around all the incredible information we soaked up today.

Like there are approx 6000 languages in the world today and only 429 of them have a complete bible. Over 90% of the languages are spoken by maybe 6% of the world’s population, which tells us that there are hundreds of languages with only a few speakers. English is #3 in terms of most spoken, Chinese Mandarin is #1, with Spanish placing at #2.

The "JESUS" film has been translated into more than 1,000 languages! Which makes it the most translated and also the most-watched motion picture of all time.

"He is risen; he is not here." -- Mark 16:6

Easter Sunday...a day of honoring and recognizing Jesus Christ's resurrection from the dead and His glorious promises of eternal life for all who believe in Him.

And for the child with untrustworthy parents... a pair of Rear View Spy Glasses to keep the little sneaks from coming up behind and plundering candy from inexperienced said child.

Lemonade Stand

Our HOA had a community tag sale and Mason took that opportunity to go into business for himself for the day. I don't think he will do it again any time soon but he was proud to be able to sit back and say "I did it".
