Nature walk

The kids have a five day weekend. We decided to go on a walk. Down the street from our house, there is some undeveloped land. We went to explore. It was a beautiful day!
We could smell a skunk, which the kids weren't happy about. They don't like yucky smells. We practically have to force them to go to the zoo.

My happy little girl.
Felix was so super happy being carried in the backpack. He was talking and playing with my hair. We were out for almost two hours and he was content the entire time!
Liam, striking his standard pose.

As we were walking around the neighborhood, all the kids were out playing. We decided to stop and say hi to some friends. Felix and Ally playing piano. Felix's new thing is reaching. He always is going for things out of reach.
We finished up our walk by going by the pond and throwing rocks in for awhile. That is always a kid-pleasing activity.
We love our neighborhood and our house so much! Now that the weather is warming up and it is light longer, we will really enjoy it!

That's cool that you have an area like that around, and wasnt' the weather so nice? I think I like Boise. In fact, I looked at the weather channel and saw that it was 20 degrees warmer here than Dallas TX yesterday. Ha! We're going to have to come and go fishing in that little pond with you guys sometime. We'll see how Gabe likes our baby backpack too. That's a great idea.
