On Sunday we went for a hike as a family at McDowell Nature Preserve, on the very first trail we hiked after Mike took the job here.
~ Mike and Laurel ~
Mother Nature was so beautiful - Autumn colors at their peak.
We made time for a little bit of creek play.
And took in the fruits of recent rains.
I captured this very sweet exchange between Mike and Laurel.
~ Log-jumping Lela ~
Family hikes remind us that
we are not there to connect with nature.
They remind us that We Are Nature.
Peace,
