love.
i found it.
It was a great morning all together. After breakfast, we went for a long walk.
It rained a lot yesterday but the sun was out today and we very much enjoyed the beauty all around us. (there’s nothing like clean woods, I drank the air.)
Up at the top of the mountain we looked over the railings of the look out tower; miles and miles of views.
The days can be so busy with school and scedules, it’s a sweet blessing to have Rich and the children around me on the weekends. Feels right, and all is well.
We went to Moe’s for a taco lunch after our walk. I heard someone from another table say, “That’s a large family!” She was smiling and I did, too.
Happiness does not depend on outward things, but on the way we see them. Leo Tolstoy
Good to be Home 
i really enjoyed your pics of your walk, what a beautiful day. it rained here all day, still is and its very foggy. tomorrow promises to be nice though.–karen
A beautiful walk you all got to enjoy! I love to hike, but my hubby n kids don’t feel the same 😦 Oh, there is sooo much life in nature – fresh air after a rain is so refreshing – or the cool crisp early morning air too. I was thinking this week we should soon be watching out for caterpillars – looks like you’ve found one already. :)Love the quote at the end – agree 100%.
Oh such a beautiful walk! The colors are fabulous. I liked seeing all the running and obvious enjoyment!
Beautiful day for a walk! I just love autumn air after the rain, too!!!! You live in such a gorgeous area!
so fun! the colors are beautiful~i love weekends w/ all the family around too. 🙂
oh beautiful brillant colors!!!!
Such a beautiful setting for a family walk. Love it! 🙂
What a beautiful family ! And the trail you went on is GORGEOUS.All those colors ! You captured them really well !Happy Sunday!
I love your ‘large’ family and I love the way you see things through your camera. 🙂 Your blog always touches my heart or inspires me in some way.
Beautiful pictures……I brought my daughter in and we looked at your blog together. She has been wanting to “see” fall. We live in the desert and our fall means it is 89 instead of 109. No trees that turn colors. Thank you for sharing your world with us. It is so nice to see a family enjoying one another!May I use the the Leo quote. It is so true!
what a colorful path to walk! Sounds like a wonderful start to the weekend!
Thanks for taking us on the walk with you!We ate at Moes this weekend too..one of my favs! I love how the lady smiled at you, I would too!
so beautiful— the togetherness and the autumn colors.
Love all the pictures! I love it when we’re all together too. Hey, a shirtless boy out on a walk? I have some of those!
@sixAs – Of course, you may use any quotes. I find them online or in the books I read. I love the thought of you and your daughter enjoying the season through my camera lens. I thought of you today when I wrote the latest post. You will see what I mean if you get a chance to read. 🙂
