Turtle Power!

Here is a little taste of our weekend! :) We like to bike ride--lots. So this last weekend while on our bike ride to the park, James spotted a teeny turtle. We stopped to show the kids and ended up taking it home with us. Berlin has named it Daisy (which is also the name of her made up friend...who has quite the attitude according to Berlin)... although, she is now insisting that the turtle's name is just Turtle. We've kept it this week, we got it some turtle food and read up on painter turtles...but the thing isn't eating its food...so we may be letting it go. But so far it has been a neat experience.

Here are a couple...many more from the weekend to come (including the paintballing!):
