Big day!

We took Maggie on her first canoe trip today, to a neat cypress pond that we like to go to about an hour away from Raleigh. She did very well, but she's not completely sold on it yet, as you can tell by the expression on her face. We saw lots of ducks and geese, several turtles, and a couple of brown water snakes. But Maggie's favorite part of the trip was when daddy would splash the water with his paddle (that, and the container of cheese I brought!). But the fun didn't end there...Mr. Eli came over this evening to help Maggie get into some mischief.
