a little hike in December

We are enjoying these last few warm days of fall and in honor of the beautiful weather we took a little hike this weekend.  We really are so blessed with our surroundings and in just a short twenty minute drive we were in a peaceful world of golden grass and whispering wind through the pine trees. 

Everdeen insisted on walking and made it almost a mile on her tiny little feet.  Of course we stopped lots of times to pick up rocks and sprinkle them in the grass and admire the horseback riders passing by.  By the time we headed back to the car she was sound asleep with the warm December sun on her face.
