Of course the highlight of the hike for the boys was throwing rocks into the water 😂 oh, and the m&m’s dad bought to bribe them on the way back up 😬 We’ll be back to do more exploring soon!
Fun little hike this morning, and only 20 mins from the apartment!

We dug holes in the sand, played some Prstomet (flinger),swam in the water, played with new friends, and ate dinner by the water. Solid beach day!

Had a great day exploring The Cumberland Caverns with Christina’s cousin Anna and Aunt Julie!! But first we had to stop in the little town downtown of McMinnville for some treats! Nathaniel of course picked a sparkly donut with glitter on it and Maddox picked a regular chocolate donut. Fun was had by all!

Oooooo watch out Tennessee, 1-3 inches of snow coming! This makes me crack up a bit, especially after living in the mountains of Colorado. We’ll see how the locals handle this severe weather.

Well it's a bit tough to do much gardening at an apartment (except Guerilla style) but we're gonna help the boys give it a try! So they each have some flowers, strawberry starts, carrots, and broccoli. And yeah if we can get a broccoli stalk to grow

With an average 58 inches of rain a year, we have had rain almost every day we’ve been here. While the locals consider the weather cold lately, coming from Colorado this is mild and enjoyable for the month of February. We explored a near by park where the river was rushing. The boys played the sink or float game (thanks blippi) with anything they could find and ran around with random kiddos.
Hey guys! Sorry we have been MIA, Costa Rica has thrown us some curve balls so we are now back in the states (still holding out hope that CR is in the cards for us). Head over to the blog to read what’s new with the Hyland Crew! ☺️
