A Walk in the Woods

Brrrr! It's cold this week! Luckily we had a warm-ish weekend so we could play outside and go for a walk in the woods behind our house...

The goal of our walk was to be brave and to find sticks, leaves, and bears:

We found the sticks and leaves easily - luckily the only bear we found was ClareBear.

And the only time we got scared was when we heard an odd squeaky/creaky sound from up above...

but we quickly realized that it was the sound of two piney trees rubbing together!

Sean was in awe of this fallen tree - he told me that a bear lives in its roots and he likes to sleep in the winter and the bear will only come out at lunchtime so he could get a peanut butter jelly sandwich and fruit - maybe peaches - and then go back to napping (it was getting close to lunchtime at this point)...

After our walk in the woods, we took a potty break and then headed back outside to go to the playground to play our new favorite game, superman!


Hopefully this cold, cold weather will clear out soon - or at least bring some snow!!
