In Summer, Autumn, Winter, and Spring

On our way back to California from Texas, we visited the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum! My favorite part of the Museum was the Hummingbird Aviary.  Here are some pictures of the hummingbirds. Enjoy! This little bird was eating from the feeder: Hummingbirds come in all colors, including green! One of the best places to find hummingbirds is next to the feeders. More little hummingbirds... Hummingbirds are small and hard to spot, but it's fun to find them! The best surprise of all: A hummingbird nest!!!

Today, my mom invented a new delicious dish - Coconut Cream Pancakes! Ingredients : Flour, Water, Coconut Cream, Oil, Sugar. All you do is simply mix the ingredients together... And then cook it on the pan! Mmm... they tasted SOOOOOOOOO good! Enjoy! :)

It's December 9th, and we are in New Mexico! Today, we visited Carlsbad Caverns, the biggest Cavern in the United States! It's impossible to even catch a glimpse of the beauty and size of Carlsbad Caverns through even 100 photos. You NEED to actually visit Carlsbad Caverns to understand how massive and beautiful it is.

We also got to see columns , which are made from stalactites and stalagmites that grow together.

This special type of cave formation below is called ...

On the road, we were reciting verses, reviewing CR's and Greek, listening to hours of sermons, dreaming about Bible Bee, and napping (the best way to pass time!)... Tonight, we're staying at a resort one hour away from San Antonio. Tomorrow is registration! As we were driving to the resort, we were surprised by a tarantula in the middle of the road. It was sooooo COOL! We really wished we could keep it as a pet, but we knew that it would have a happier life in the wild. We also got to see birds on the side of the road. In the evening, we went for a relaxing hike in the woods.  During our hike, we discovered some footprints. After the hike, we had a fun time playing games. Tomorrow, early in the morning, we will drive to San Antonio. It will be registration day for ...
