Jideo-cashing in Hillsboro

On Sunday we went to Mass sans Marcus, Gemma, and Posa (sick) and then to Elmer's for breakfast. A nice afternoon at home, watching MSU basketball and hanging out. Marcus had made us a fantastic Dini-and-meatball dinner and we ate it early so we could go out geocaching in the evening. Here we are on our way:





The first site was a dud. We think the water was too high.





Next we went to a new forested park that had THREE caches! We put in the coordinates for the closest one and off we went. Daisy had fun with us too.





James found it! It was in a hollow log (right below Bunny's hand):





We exchanged some goodies. At this point Marcus had to take the younger girls to the van because they were cold (and Gemma kept running off). Bunny took a shell and we left some jacks and other things.





We gave up on the other two caches, maybe next time. So we stopped at DQ instead!











Then at home all cozy and warm Joe and Steph had an art project for the kids. They painted wooden picture frames. Gemma really liked this as you can imagine. Joe quickly helped her with her frame then we shoo'd her away so the other kids could work on theirs.





Now they have a nice memory, and a place to display a memory!
