Adventures
Saturday found us spending the afternoon surrounded by the beauty of God’s creation. It was my first time back in the TRUCK off-roading, and it was wonderful.
We followed some trails in the National Forest,
met some hardcore off-roaders who spoke a language with Bri that left me dumbfounded,
drove through the river,
threw rocks and waded in the freezing water,
held on for dear life (well, at least Audrey and I did),
got quite muddy (Bri managed to spray mud through the sunroof),
enjoyed hanging out with friends,
and saw Smokey the Bear.
Best of all, I was able to soak it all in and watch the faces of my children as they lived life. Now that’s beauty!
I know I say it a lot, but I love living here! I’ll never be convinced that there’s a better place on earth. I am breathing thanks for a sweet time with my family… every day is a day to share and delight in them and in all that God has given us.
You can enjoy all our pics in the gallery, just don’t get jealous.
