Grandpa Davey comes to visit

Our hike to Smugglers Cove

Grandpa Davey brought us some garden enhancements including some garden animals. 

We went to Dyea to see the chocolate lilies and irises. 

Grandpa Davey came to visit for a week.  He got the Lily and Cora tour of town.  He got to go to library story hour, have maple bars at the depot, see flowers in Dyea, and play on the beach in Carcross. 

Funny Cora

Cora really is funny.  I can never really capture it, but we were in Jacqueline's office and Lauren took this photo. 

Just a little tutu dance party

I think it was the new fancy skirts from Aunt Sonya and Uncle Ralph that inspired this dance party.

Carcross

We went to Carcross for the day.  It was windy but sunny.  Lily and I did up downtown Carcross while Dad and Cora napped.  Then we all took a motorcar ride down the lake.

She is ready for the Carcross section.

Smugglers Cove

Sure, I only post twice a year, but that is better than nothing.  The girls and I went hiking today.  And we did pretty well.  Cora wanted to walk into the water and Lily needed a little coaxing on the way home, but we had a good time.  The weather has been great. 

Hiking at the Nature Park

Taking advantage of the sunshine, we did a little hike at the Nature Center to Lily Pond. Highlights included the salamander, hide and seek, using our pretend binoculars, and gummy bears.

A Star is Born!

Lily started ballet class on Tuesday.  And wow!  She was great.  The best in the class.  A natural talent.  Okay she also might also be the oldest in the class.  The class is for 2-4 year olds so she probably is one of the older girls.  And she is pretty good at following directions.  But she loved it and maybe for your first dance class its good to be a star.
