Need to slow life down a bit...


go for a hike. Last Saturday was another great day so we decided that before we decorated for Christmas we would slow our lives down a bit and head up to the nature center for an early morning hike. We thought it was going to be a lot colder than it was on the trails. Stevie lasted about 30 minutes in his puffed up jacket but FuDa never wanted to take his off! The day in the woods was just what we needed to refocus ourselves during this busy time (updating home study for our Burundi adoption, IRS adoption credit auditS as in plural, the holidays, a new reading program with FuDa, house projects etc. A lot going on but all good stuff, except for the auditS of course) .







good thing about nature centers, there are always bathrooms around for the emergency pu pu.

So easy to get carried away in all that is Christmas. Good for you for taking a little time-out.
