Swamp FHE

For family home evening we headed to the swamp. (Actually it's this education-themed nature preserve called Asbury Park that includes a swamp and a long trail.) It was fun to watch Joanna chase Robert along the boardwalk. It is a very nice place. We'll have to come back when they are open so we can see inside the building and learn something about the area's ecosystem.
Joanna hit a milestone here. We asked her to smile for a picture and she finally did! She kind of pressed her lips together and pushed up her chin until the corners of her mouth forced her cheeks back. At least it's pretty close to a smile. You can see what I mean in the pic. It wasn't a fluke, either, she kept "smiling" for most of our pictures.
