Nature Walk.

I know I have said it before, but I love where we live. I couldn't have hand picked a better place to raise my family. It is perfect for us, maybe not for everyone, but for us right now it truly is the right place to be. One of my very favorite things about the area is the ability to be out in nature either by walking or driving no more than 5-10 minutes. Last night we headed out on a Nature walk to complete a homework assignment of Stella's. It reminded me just how thankful I am to live in such a beautiful place, surrounded by these amazing little people and one amazing husband. It's hard to believe that we created each of these little beings, but I'm sure glad (most days) that we did!


Little miss scarly bug. She's started this new finger sucking thing. Its very odd. Always those fingers and always at an angle. She's a cute one!


Mr. Finn. He's big into wearing the girls sunglasses and always upside down. He thinks it's funny and almost everyone who sees him doing it agrees. 


Stella Bella. Look at that face. When she's happy, she is so happy. She loves to go on hikes more so than any of the other kids. Last night was especially fun for her since she was doing her "homework".


Lily B. What would we do without her? She is as helpful and kind to her siblings as they come. We sure do love her!





We're almost to the top!


Run Lily Run.


Run Finn Run.


They made it. How cute are those little faces? Love them.



We have visitors trickling in starting tonight until Wednesday. We are especially excited to see Uncle Buff coming all the way from Maui! It's going to be a fun week.

Happy Thanksgiving Week!

What a beautiful family! Seriously, your kids are so cute and that first picture of Scarlet is darling. I love her all bundled up in there.

So happy that you guys are so happy where you are. I don't think there's a better feeling than being with your loved ones in a place that you love and is perfect for you. So wonderful!!
