Great Outdoors - 117/365

What a gorgeous day! We took full advantage of it, too! 
Jim, Reagan, Brinkley and I, started with a stroll on the Kirk to Herbert trail, where we saw an ENORMOUS snake! He stretched almost across 3/4 of the pathway, it was crazy! We got up close and he actually started shaking his tail like a rattler, it was bizarre. We have no idea what kind he was, but he was BIG! 
After the trail, we went straight over to the daffodil meadow in Mill Creek Park. I have taken Reagan there three Springs in a row now, she loves it! It was in full bloom and just beautiful! We got some adorable pictures of Brinkley and Reagan in the flowers. We walked down to the water's edge to look at the geese and we kept seeing fish leap out of the water. It was so strange! 
From there, we headed into the park looking for somewhere else to explore. We ended up parking at Pioneer Pavilion and walked along the path there. It was a really pretty path up above the water. There was a small "cave" along the way that Reagan enjoyed seeing. We followed the path which lead into an open field. We had fun running through there. There was a flat place by the water in the field, so we stopped to check out the creek. I walked out to the middle on some big rocks and Reagan kept saying "mama get out water!" LOL! 
By this time, it was time to head home for lunch and naps. We were all worn out! After naps, we played sidewalk chalk and had some dinner. What a perfect day! 

The photo of the day is Reagan and Brinkley in the "cave"....
