Ok, It's Spring Break and we can't afford to go anywhere, so we decided last minute to go check out the Gilbert Reserve behind the Gilbert Library. I had never been there before, but had heard about it. We packed a picnic and off we went. This place was huge...trails and ponds and birdseverywhere. We just stayed up at the front because of time. We will have to do this again when we have a bit more time. I made Chicken & Quinoa salad sandwiches and we had carrot sticks and homemade lemonade. We had been squeezing lemons off our tree all day (We still bave bags of lemons to go. We had oodles of lemons this year!) so making the lemonade quickly was a snap and thank goodness for my bottled chicken. It is so nice to have on hand for last minute meals!
Everyone loved the sandwiches. they were a hit. Summer snarfed 3 of them! Of course, I just had to get a picture of each of them stuffing their faces.
There were ducks everywhere! 
We even came across a momma with 10 babies. They were so cute!
Of course Summer went on a search for turtles. She loves turtles. She found a couple. She just thought this picture was too cool because it showed her reflection of her actually taking the picture.
Even though it was a last minute thing, we had fun and will do it again

The girls had fun watching the ducks.
