walk to remember

The weather is beyond fabulous today!

at nearly 16 degrees it's the ultimate fall day,

sun shining, soft breeze. Gorgeous.

We happily geared up and headed out into the bush after brunch to enjoy the sites.

It's just what we needed, it seems like things have been so busy lately we haven't had the time to enjoy what we are working so hard for! Our family and to be able to raise the littles in this scenic place, where deer show up in our backyard and there are trees as far as the eye can see.

Actually the other day I was thinking to myself how it would be much easier to live back in town.

That I was sick of this house, I was sick of the maintenance and all.

Then a couple of days later as I was pulling into the lane way after work, 6 deer scampered off into the woods from right behind our house, I felt like such an idiot.

How on earth could I want to leave this!

And then today watching Oliver mimic everything little thing Guy did was hilarious.

Guy was moving large branches out of the trail so Oliver was right behind him scooping up twigs and putting them to the side. I was beaming, how blessed we are to be able to raise our children HERE.
What wasn't so hilarious is when he threw our parenting back in our face...

with a booming 2 1/2 year old voice "Come here... NOW!"

We chose to over look it and ignore the comments until he talked nicely.   
Talk about a reality check. He's really been playing with different tones lately when he talks to us.
Totally imitating how we speak and sometimes it's a real slap in the face! eeks.

But oh how I love this little sauce pot. And this place.
So thankful for the walk and the reminder.
This is our ghill life!
