She liked taking pictures of the waves.

Flowers are always a favorite subject

Various other nature pics

I like how you can almost feel the softness of this grass

I also thought the fire hose was cool, but didn't think to photograph it.

 

The view from the back deck of the lodge. We ate dinner out here on Saturday evening.

 

Our beds. Our cabin actually turned out to have a double bed but I let John have it and slept alone because that is what I had planned for.

The rainbow that never ends

Serafina wrote a book.

The Rainbow That Never Ends.

Once upon a time it was raining and a rainbow appeared.

But it was awesome. red red red!

I loved it. Mm mmm yes.

And it always existed.

Pixie Hollow

I bribed Serafina with fairy stickers to help me clean the living room.

 

I decided to scan her picture and upload it because I rather liked the rabbit she drew. Her drawing skills have really taken off this year. (Also you can't really tell but the fairies have iridescent wings. Best stickers EVER.) It was a timely bribe too, because we just watched a tinkerbell movie on netflix, this very afternoon.

Serafina's Skripshrs. Let's read a few sample passages, shall we? The first one is apparently from the book of behaving:

Awww.

She's getting better at writing. And as a plus she was concentrating really hard and didn't act like a monkey.
