A Walk In The Woods

I have been telling the kids we will take a walk in the woods and enjoy the autumn days but just hadn’t taken the time to do it. So, on Sunday we finally made it. It was early evening and a beautiful day for a walk. We live in the city, but have some really pretty woods just behind our house. It seems to actually have been an old farm or something — it even has a small family cemetery on the property. Some of the grave markers actually predate the Civil War. There is also an old abandoned piece of farm machinery and an outbuilding. We enjoyed our walk very much and I’m glad I finally took the time to take some of the kids.

Starting to get dusky in the woods so we head home.

Back home. I love to see the lights coming on in all the houses as evening comes.

Step UP For Down Syndrome 5K and Festival

On Saturday we went to the Down syndrome 5K and festival. Sarah, Caroline and Claire were all dancing with Miracles In Motion. This is Claire’s first year of dance and her very first performance. They were all pretty excited. It turned out to be a rainy and messy day so I didn’t really take many pictures like I wanted to. Most of the time my camera was hidden under a jacket to keep it dry, but I did pull it our for a few minutes and got some pictures of the kids dancing.
