New Discovery

Today was more than likely our last hot day of the year. It was 90 degrees (very unusual for this time of year here) and beautiful! I knew we had to do something to enjoy it, so after lunch the kids and I got in the car, and all I told Isabella was that it was a surprise where we were going. There is a man made lake 15 minutes from us that we have never been to, and I cannot believe we live so close and have never been there! It certainly wasn't our last time going there! There was a couple of smallish waterfalls, fun bridges, picnic areas, hiking trails, a playground, and a really nice beach area. I got a good workout, as the hiking trails are definitely not meant for pushing a stroller (I think I'll use the Ergo next time)!










This tee pee was fun, Isabella loved playing in it.







She spent the most time just playing on these rocks!








I love the fall colors that are starting to show up!
















I asked Isabella to take a picture of Jaymes and I!



























She brought a bag to collect fall items . . . we brought home lots of acorns and leaves.






We had SO much fun, and we can't wait to go back, and hopefully take Daddy with next time. I told Monte I felt like I was a good mom today. :) Not that I usually don't feel like one, but there are definitely days . . .

It's beautiful there! I can't believe the trees are changing already. Fall is my favorite season. And I get it about feeling like a good mom on some days:) You are a great Mom!
