The one where we go for a walk in the woods.
10:39All day Thursday it was so hot! After school the little's wanted to go to the park but we decided it was just too hot for that. So after dinner we went for a walk in the woods instead! The weather had cooled down a bit and it was a gorgeous evening. A stroll through the woods is exactly what we needed.We're very luck to live in such a beautiful area with fields and woodland and lots of a public footpaths! So off we went to explore some more!
We walked past the corn field at hte back of our house, sticking to the public footpath. "It's such good fun living in the countryside" Ellie told me. I'm glad the kids love living in the countryside because I am a country gal! I didn't like living in a big town with hoards of people and nowhere much to walk with non beautiful views. The boys seem to enjoy living here, too! I'm sure that's because there is more space for them to burn off there energy, bless 'em.
The kids also found a tree to climb on. I remember when I was young and I use to climb trees in this woodland too! I am so pleased my children get to have that childhood fun that I had.
We also knew there was a rope swing in the woods so we decided to go and have some fun on that. I may or may not have had a little go, haha. So many childhood memories! And now I'm making similar childhood memories for my children to look back on.
After a little while we decided to leave and go home because we were all worn out! We had a wonderful evening! It was a beautiful evening walk and we can;t wait to do it again sometime. We're going to explore the other side of the woods next time! :)

It's great that you have so much space to go and explore as a family so close to your house. I'm sure the kids love that there's so many different areas to go on mini-adventures after school. It's great that your daughter told you she loves living in the countryside. Thanks for linking up with Country Kids.
