The one where we throw leaves in the air.
00:00Its half term and we plan on spending as much time outdoors as possible! Winter is well on it's way and we're really wanting to make the most of Autumn as it's out absolute favourite time of year. The leaves are changing colour and the weather is becoming cooler.
We decided to go for an Autumnal walk and walk along the river bank to feed the (very) greedy swans! It's one of our favourite things to do. Another one of our favourite things to do is throw leaves up in the air. My children absolutely love this and it's of course free. Honestly, you do not need lots of money and expensive days out.. my children are happy with just a pile of leaves and lots of space to run around, hehe.
We may have also been chased by the greedy swans wanting more bread!
We are hoping to go for more lovely walks. Maybe we'll put on the wellie boots and go for a stroll in the woods sometime this week! I bet it looks amazing down by the pond this time of year!
How have you been enjoying Autumn and half term so far? I'd love to hear what you have been up to!

ReplyDeleteLooks like a beautiful time of year. It's Spring here in Australia and it's been uncomfortably hot already! #twinklytuesday
ReplyDeleteI love the pictures of the boys throwing the leaves in the air. I am going to take my little man down to the park to get some pictures like this they are fab. Nothing better than getting the wellies on and going for a walk in the woods.
ReplyDeleteWhat absolutely gorgeous photos!! You have a real skill for photography, these photos are beautiful! I havent really done much for autumn except have alot of hot chocolate! <3
ReplyDeleteOne of my favourite things about Autumn is the piles and piles of leaves that you can throw about!! Really lovely post - looks like the kids had loads of fun!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous photos :) I have to agree with the kids on this one, throwing piles of autumn leaves in the air is really fun! And kicking them too of course.

ReplyDeleteWell, my 18 month old dragged me out for a 'gawk' in the lashings of rain today. I think I need to invest in some wellies too ha!
ReplyDeleteI loved the idea behind this shoot it fits in perfectly with this time of year. I love the look of elation that your boy had on his face that smile is everything!
ReplyDeleteI love autumn and you are so right, nothing beats being outside and enjoying the change in season. Some great pictures,my little one loves playing in the fallen leaves :-) x
ReplyDeleteaaaah beautiful photos, they've turned out so well! Good job on capturing the leaves in the air x
ReplyDeleteThey all look so happy. What fun you must have all had. #PointShoot
ReplyDeleteAdorable kids hun!
ReplyDeleteI love these photos too. We have just discovered somewhere near us which is just like this & I managed to take some snaps of Hayden.
Slowly warming to the idea of having to venture out in the colder seasons now LOL

It looks like you had such a lovely walk, your kids looks adorable and you managed to get some really nice pictures of them. Definitely some worth framing! Xx
ReplyDeleteAah they're SUCH gorgeous kids! You should be so proud! Look at those lovely faces! What lovely photos too — ones that you'll treasure in a few years time, I bet! :) Thanks so much for linking up with us on #TwinklyTuesday
ReplyDeleteIt must be so much warmer down there to be eating ice cream and out in t-shirts, either that or your kids really don't feel the cold?! We've had at least 3 layers on when we're out, including a fleece lined jacket each. I love your photos, great ones of your kids just enjoying nature!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for linking up to #Whatevertheweather :) x
Great walk, adorable kids, beautiful pictures! #MMWBH
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful pictures! You all look so happy! I love Autumn and throwing leaves and you're right, it really is such a stunning season. Although you're a lot braver than me with the swans. They terrify me, if they were chasing me I'd be so scared! It looks like you had a perfect family day out. Thank you so much for linking up to #whatevertheweather xx
ReplyDeleteIt has been really warm this autumn compare to recent years, so we're getting out as much as possible too.Kids seeme to forget all arguments with their siblings when they out on a country walk.
ReplyDeleteI love the colours of autumn, your pictures are amazing and capture the fun time you had on your walk :)

Love that it was a beautiful Autumn day but it wasn't too cold for ice cream. Perfect! I love Autumn! I think it may be my favourite. Apart from when it is raining. :) Thanks for linking up! #shareasmile xx
ReplyDeleteI think every child should get to experience days like this, running free and throwing leaves, it is one of my fondest memories of autumn as a child. Thank you for sharing some gorgeous photos on Country Kids.
ReplyDeleteAutumn is a very pretty time of year - if it could just have a little less rain I would be happy. Beautiful photos x
ReplyDeleteLooks beautiful! Swan's scare the bejessus out of me. I think I was chased a few times when I was little. Your kids were brave to get so close. Such pretty photos. Makes me homesick, no Autumn colours in Thailand.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for linking up with #fartglitter x
Looks like you caught the last of the good weather there! I went for a walk last Sunday, so nice to be out and about isn't it? Thanks for sharing in #HappyDaysLinky x
ReplyDeleteaww love this .. and totally beautiful photos you managed to capture too!
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking up with #MagicMoments
Lovely autumn fun, beautiful colours and you really can't beat a bit of leaf throwing in autumn! Lovely pics.

Its so true - who needs money when you've got free leaves and sunshine?! Love the fact that your older kids are thoroughly enjoying it too, like my eldest does but is beginning to feel awkward about mucking about in public like that (sad face). Love the river - where is it? #savouringtheseason
ReplyDeleteThese photos are stunning Sarah! And your daughter just totally blends into the autumnal colour scheme! Her so right about jot needing expensive days out... A bit of space to run and a few trees, and the kids are happy! Thanks so much for linking up to #savouringtheseason ... It's good to be back!
