An October Hike


Well, hello! I didn't expect to go so long without posting, especially since I have recently committed to posting more consistently. BUTTTT--- in my defense, life got a tad bit crazy. We had friends in town, my in-laws stopped in for a visit, we have been having so much fun with my parents living here in town (!!!) and it feels like so many autumn festivities have been booking up our calendar. And then.... our laptop battery died. And blogging without a laptop is virtually impossible. Well, it is possible from the iPad or the phone, but seriously how am I supposed to make my post look similar to the others and upload great pictures and stuff? Great pics, yeah yeah... By great pics, I mean my iPhone quality pics. I really need to get a better grip at using our awesome DSLR camera that we own that is up collecting cobwebs in the closet ;) But in all seriousness, it's great to be here and it's wonderful to be using a laptop with a fresh new battery that stays charged longer than 0.002 seconds.

Moving on though... We recently headed out for a gorgeous hike about 25 minutes from home. There was a small stream that Eden loved playing in, and it was also the first time we have used our new Ergo carrier (don't ask me why it took me so long to buy it!). This was the first carrier I have used that didn't KILL my back! We had a comfortable hiking experience for the first time ever and stopped by at a local restaurant on the way home for some fish & chips and beer. I'd call that a great day! Fall weather is here and we are loving it!
