"Magical" Sunday Walk

On Sunday, we went for a walk on a path near our house. Rebekah said this would be a good place to walk because it's surrounded by trees and feels "magical". Silly girl. It was kind of fun though, and we only took 400+ pictures to get a few good ones.



See! The walk was magical. Look at that dirty, cute face.


We spend a lot of time picking up rocks on the side of a bridge to throw into the stream. Kaitlynn actually carried a huge rock down most of the path just to see how big the splash would be.


She is quite the poser. Just point the camera towards her and she will make this very unnatural face. Cute girl.


Kaitlynn was very pleased with the awesome splashes her rocks were making.


If we weren't throwing rocks off the bridge, Kaitlynn was spending time picking all the wildflowers along the path. She was a good enough flower picker that she got most of the roots as well. That takes skill; magical skill.


Magical?



Kaitlynn picked flowers, but Jack found sticks to shoot us with. He smiles the most when he has some kind of makeshift weapon.



Olivia finally got tired of being carried around so she took herself for a walk. She had a hard time staying on the path so we often ended up in the gravel trying to help her find the way back.


This was probably our best picture of the day. It's magical.


Kaitlynn the flower picker and Jack the destroyer coming to kill the flowers with his magical stick.


I suppose the walk made us happy. Sometimes it takes a little magic to accomplish that. Thanks Rebekah.
