Daddy's Day Off

Greg was home from work yesterday, and it was a glorious day! We spent the morning at Reedy Creek Nature Preserve. We visited the Nature Center first, and then took a walk on the Dragonfly Pond Trail.

The boys were so enthusiastic, and very good little hikers. Mark and I hung back and checked out the leaves...

while Greg and Nathan scouted out the path ahead.

The pond was a wonderful, quiet spot with beautiful hardwoods surrounding it.



The boys kept running back and forth from a gravel area to the pond, tossing their pebbles in.


After the hike, the boys played on large xylophones set up among the trees.


I think we have found our new favorite outdoor adventure, and it's only 30 minutes from home!
