And the sky is grey, but that doesn't keep us inside! Hiking in the winter and stomping in the water is not a problem, just be sure to dress for the cold! We had a fun couple of hours in the woods getting out energy and spending time with friends. My favorite part of the hike was when Little Man had a park pamphlet about watching out for bears.  Inside the pamphlet was a picture of someone feeding a bear and it said "Do Not Feed the Bears".  Little man was "reading" and he says "and you can feed the bears"  I immediately corrected him telling him all the things you should do if you see a bear and that feeding them is not one.  He then says "but mom, there is a picture right here that says you can feed the bear"...ha!! 

Collecting Moments ~ January 2017

Well with a blink, January has come and gone! I honestly feel like it was just yesterday we were saying "Happy New Year".  I am feeling behind and like I have loose ends to tie up from 2016.  I want to finish and share my 365 from 2016, but the organizational piece of it has left me frustrated.  There is not enough time in my day....and as I watch time go by I realize, though I haven't finished, my energy and time, is much better spent with my littles... their hands will only be this small once and I need to hold on to that for as long as I can.  So with that, I am letting go of the pressure I have put on myself to finish the 2016 project and go with one day I will get it done, until then, there is 2017. Here are our moments in January!
