Devon decided he was going to take us all out to the Wildlife Preserve in Lago Vista today. He and the girls went hiking out there a few weeks ago, so he thought it would be fun for the whole family to go. We got to Lago Vista and decided to pick up some lunch and then head over to the park. The girls were not at all interested in going hiking. They wanted a park with a slide! On to Plan B... we asked the girl at Sonic if they had a park with a slide and she sent us to Jonestown. We weren't really sure what we were getting into, but were pleasantly surprised. They had a nice city park right on the lake.
We had our lunch and played on the play scape for a while.
Cadence tried to keep up with her sisters as usual.
We walked down to the lake to do some exploring.
Lyric and Daddy discussed which rocks were best for skipping.
Daddy had to demonstrate the perfect rock skipping technique.
Story threw some rocks in the lake. Yes, I think she was trying to find the biggest ones on shore. I'm surprised they didn't carry her little body in with them!
We decided to feed the ducks the leftover french fries we had. I thought the girls would really enjoy feeding them, but they almost knocked me down trying to get away from the little beasts! 
Can you blame them? Geese can be really scary.
We found a turtle shell and much to daddy's surprise I suggested we bring it home. I will be sure to post pictures when we get it cleaned up.

Lyric was scared at first, but Story just shimmied right up the tree.
When Lyric was up the tree we thought it would be cute to get Story to climb up to get a picture of the both of them. Lyric was ready to get down and did her best not to "freak out".
Story really didn't get the fact that we wanted them both in the tree. She climbed up to the spot where Lyric was and said,"Excuse me Lyric, will you please move?" I really don't know where she thought Lyric could go:-)

After the tree climbing we decided to try to take a picture of all three girls together. People wonder why we never have a picture of all of them together. Well just have a look and you will understand!
