A Sunday Explore . . .

Jeremy had to sleep after church today because of work tonight.
The kids were WIRED and LOUD.
So we went for a walk.


Timo brought a bat because "you never know what may attack us."
It's good to have a protector around (especially from the grass).


Our house is on the edge of acres of country.  It is so beautiful!
It brought back many memories of my childhood rambles about the fields in Circleville, making believe and imagining.


I was so excited for my kids to have access to such things,
but then realized they have no idea how to do that!  How sad!
So I suggested they each pick a hay bale to be their house.
Timo and Sarah took off running to pick the best one and they scared up some deer.


The girls chose a haybale to share.


Timo proceeded to pound his with his bat, all the while singing a catchy song he made up on the spot.


The song delighted Taffy and Sarah as they eavesdropped.


When it was time to head indoors with the wind nipping our noses,


Timo led the troops echoing his song,
"Hurrah!  Hurrah!"
all the way home.
