Little Papaya Baby

 

 

A little slice of life in the Honeycutt-Dill household

 

Spring Break at Magnolia Springs

 

We spent part of spring break at Magnolia Springs State Park. This was the morning view from our cabin's back porch. 

The lake was full of lily pads, fish, and turtles. We even got to see baby alligators, thanks to a park ranger telling us where to look for them.

Hazel came prepared with all the essentials for a fun trip.

We came prepared with Easter treats...

...and eggs to dye.

The small ones are from Millie, our bantam hen.

Hazel attempts to figure out how much longer till we're done with the trail.

First day, #2

 

 

Hazel is back in school two days/week for the final six weeks of 4th grade.

 

I would normally try to pick out the best two or three photos, but I couldn't choose between all these big smiles. She was really happy to go back.

 

Juniper is now back in school four days/week. She's glad to be back in person, seeing other kids, and connecting with teachers.

 

Sisters

 

We are sometimes frustrated by their bickering, but Juniper and Hazel get along remarkably well. Even after months of COVID and spending almost all their time at home together, they mostly enjoy each other's company. They've had a lifetime of practice at this sister thing.

 

 

Stylin'

 

Once we're back out in the world and can show off our style, we're definitely starting a new extra-high-waist trend.
 

Happy Birthday, Teenager!

Juniper is officially a teen! 

 

She continues to love fruit and dairy, and requested lemon cheesecake and key lime pie as birthday desserts (one for her actual birthday, and the other for a small outdoor birthday party the following weekend).

She has also maintained her resemblance to a certain fantasy creature who perches on ledges and likes shiny objects.
