We did happen to see turtles sunning on a log but they were to far for Aleyah to make them out. She was pretty disappointed to not see any turtles but we did see "the big bird!" I was able to get a picture of the bird while it was perched. (The photo of the bird was taken from across the canal. It really is a "big bird".) Aleyah was giddy with excitement having seen something that the rest of us saw. This bird is quite big, there was no way she wouldn't have seen it. It was a nice day out. Hopefully we'll be able to do a few more outings before school starts. After all, it's only a couple of weeks away!!
Sisters...always ready for the camera.

Alexa, Aleyah and "Aleyah's Misha." Our dog Misha is a Bischon Frise and looks a lot like this stuffed dog. Aleyah noticed the similarities days home from Ethiopia. Since that discovery, this dog was named "Aleyah's Misha."
I also took a picture of a swan that has taken up residence in a nearby pond in our neighborhood. I just had to take a picture of it. The swan was clear across the pond and I was on the street, so it isn't the best picture. I think we'll name it Drifter, because it will no doubt find another home once winter comes.
