Girls Day Out

A day starting with a cloudless sky, cool breezes, and temperatures in the mid seventies made it the perfect opportunity to head us over to the Indianapolis Zoo. Cara and I spent the whole day there, just the two of us. Here are a few photos of our busy fun filled day.

Nature's Beauty



Last week when we were heading home we were just ahead of a storm and kept watching the sky as it grew darker. When we arrived at the house the rain had started and this was the view over our house. The photos give you an idea of the beauty of the moment but don't come close to actually being there looking up at it.







If only we could find the pot of gold at the end of one of the two rainbows we would be all set.
