At the Park

My mama found a really nice hiking trail last week on the Internet, so on Thursday we decided to go and try it out. We love to hike! It was a lot of fun, although we were a little tired when we left. I had mama's camera, so here are some of the pictures I took. I'm very happy with the way they tuned out.











Starting out. Natalie put her bonnet on herself, and since it was staying, we left it that way. :-)

Look at this big magnolia!

No horse left behind. :-)

Come on!

The entrance to the wood.

Here I go! This is fun!

What is that at the top of the tree? I need to check it out......

Wait for me!

I said wait!

They eventually got off the first tree, but that didn't stop them from exploring the second......

Here I go.....This log is slippery......(and, like a good photographer, I was unable to catch the fall:-))

Of course I'm enjoying myself. I get to ride.:-)

Finally on our way again.

The woods.

Yet another fallen tree. (To be honest, if I wasn't the one behind the camera, I would have climbed a few trees myself.:-)

A lake.

Who's that way over there?

Mama: "It looks like Bekah and Emily to me"

Sara: Aaaaggghhhhh! We must leave immediately! There are millions and millions of baby frogs!"

(and there were! I was in complete favor of vacating the premises at one, but the majority ruled.)

Are you sure it's not safe to go wading?

Rebekah and Emily saw what look like a long line stuck in the water. So, naturally, they pulled it out.

It looks like a fish!

I know! Let's do some fishing!

Is the stick tied well. (at first I thought, in absence of bait, they would try to knock the fish out, but I later learned that they were simply interested in making big splashes.:-))

Here it goes!

I'm throwing mine!

Look at that!

Back up the hill.....


We stopped at a picnic place to eat lunch.

Natalie didn't like her ham sandwich.

Mama.

Part of the Lake.

Rebekah and Emily went down to explore in the grass around the water. They thought they saw a snake and came back on the run.

I took this picture of a tree covered in Moss.

The bamboo forest.

To climb, or not to climb? That is the question.

The path out.

I actually took about 100+ pictures, but these are the ones I liked best. Dad came home this weekend, from Dothan, so on Saturday we went hiking again. Those pictures are still in the camera, but I'll try to post them when we get back,

We are going to Albany for about a week to help my Grandfather around his house, He's trying to sell it, but it needs a little yard work.

In other news, my friend Sarah and I are setting up a sewing blog! She loves to sew as much as I do, so this will be fun! Stay tuned!

By the way, Sarah also did the Feelin Feminine Challenge. You can see her pictures by going here and here. She also made most of her skirts and dresses, and they are very nice!

I'm also starting a monthly reading list on my sidebar. At the beginning of every month I'll start a new list, and at the end of the month I'll do a summary or review for each one. I'll have mine up in a few days.

Have a blessed week!
