Off on an Adventure...

It is no secret that Danny and I love to be outside.  We love biking, hiking, beaching, walking, water sporting, etc., and we love all of the seasons.  Our children have inherited this same love, and they desire to go on adventures with us since they have heard over and over the adventures that we have done as a couple.  So... a few weeks ago, we created an adventure for the whole family to enjoy!

Hannah had her backpack!

And Grace has her notebook with the list of items that we are looking for on our adventure! Can we find all of them? Grace will keep us on track -- that's for sure!




As we got on the trail near our house, Hannah was the first to collect something for our adventure.  She found a brown leaf and then put it into the backpack!  Good work, Hannah!
  

She was also proud to find these acorn tops... the squirrels had eaten almost all of the acorns around here!


It must be a boy thing... my boys HAVE TO HAVE a stick when they go for walks!  They love to walk with it, hit things with it, play swords, and much more!  Life is MORE FUN with sticks!

  

Danny found a walnut and showed the kids how you can crack it open to get the nut inside! They were very curious.  Can you say SCIENCE LESSON?



Treasure hunters!



Some adventures need TWO sticks!


We searched and searched for pinecones... one of the last things on the list.  Grace was the first to find one! 


This one just makes me laugh!


Josiah found one, too!


And so did Hannah!


Danny and the kiddos!





On the way home, Hannah and Josiah had a little leaf fight...:)


 And Caleb needed help to make it all the way back... we are glad Daddy has strong shoulders!


In the end they still love each other...CUTENESS!
