Our walks

Ed & I are trying to walk together in the evenings now that we’re getting some springish-like weather and now that it’s light later into the evenings. On school nights we put the little girls to bed between 7:30 and 8:00 and then head out on our walks while the older girls either finish homework or shower & get ready for bed. On non-school nights we typically go once the little girls are ready for bed and are reading or watching a movie. We don’t walk super-fast, but we aren’t out for a stroll either. It’s good exercise, a good chance to chat in the quiet, and a good opportunity for the girls to learn some more independence.

I have to say, as much as we want to live in Lynden someday, one thing we will miss is this space around us.

What a blessing to be able to to take in such beautiful scenery when going on walks with the person you love most.
