big munson island


at seabase, chris collected these leaves to send as postcards to his sisters. it's cute to see the big kids starting to have adventures on their own and how they emulate  some of the things they've seen. lots of family sends postcards from their travels, and they love receiving them, so they've started sending them. matt loved that his dad would always bring little souvenirs, so he does that, and now chris does too.

i thought his leaf-cards were cute.
