More Hiking

Last weekend we went hiking as a family and had a great time. We saw a flock of 7 turkey's (they obviously don't know what time of year it is), 2 doe's with babies, and lots of squirrels. We also saw the strangest thing I have seen in a while. Up on the building's there were clusters of hundreds of spiders all together in one mass. The people who work there didn't have any idea why they did it, but it was weird. There is a picture below. Yuck!

While we were hiking Patrick was trying to get Elizabeth to say "Roethlisberger". Lately she has been really talking a lot and repeating most words we say. So that lead to Andrew and Sarah having some sort of conversation about Roethlisberger which was as follows: Sarah: "What is a Roethlisberger?" (or something like that) Andrew: "Well, I know what a burger is, its a kind of food, but I'm not sure about the Roth part." Patrick and I had a chuckle about it. He is so analytical.

Finally got a good one of her. She is so squirmy now it's hard to catch her.
