Nature Hike

I took the kids to the Jester Park Natural Playscape this week. We met up with our friends, the Vansickel's. We had such a blast! Our friends couldn't stay long but we did get to have a picnic lunch with them. After they left we got to take a hike just me and my kiddos. It started out just walking and then it turned into who could find the biggest stick. Then it was stick fighting. And then it became a marching rock band. And ended up in a lot of laughing! I just snapped away with my camera trying to capture the moments. Jester Park is just beautiful! The Natural Playscape is filled with all sorts of great things for the kids to do. Mine chose to play in the water and look for frogs most of the time.

Lookin' for frogs!

This Aurora. She and Eliot would make such gorgeous babies don't you think???

This makes me laugh because it looks like Emerson is peeing all over Hammie! Haha! I'm sick.

Ok, now that we're on a hike, we obviously need sticks...

And, OBVIOUSLY, we need to have a stick fight....

Quick Mom! Take the picture so we can get right back to fighting!!!

Scarlett understands boys as much as I do.

Awww...now this I love...here's a flower I picked for you Mommy!

My special presents from the boys...I got LOTS of these flowers and rocks on our walk! :)

Ok, boys now can we do something Mommy understands? Like traveling rock band?! Notice the air guitar! :)

Hammie was on the drums, Emerson did the violin with his sticks and Eliot did the piano...atta boys!

The ride home was unusually quiet. I have no idea why....
