"Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. Write them on the doorframes of your houses and on your gates." Deuteronomy 4: 6-9

Exploring Nature

I think it's pretty safe to say our boys definitely take after their Daddy and his love for nature! The boys got a "backyard science kit" for Christmas (thanks Aunt Mamie!) and we had the chance to enjoy the beautiful weather and get dirty outside! Daddy started us off by climbing trees...
 
 
Then we went off on a trail to explore! We found a big log in the brush, so Daddy kicked it over to look for bugs. We found tons of neat stuff!  
We put all kinds of things under our magnifying glass to look at more closely.  
Here's an ant we found up close... 
After digging in deep dirt, we found an earthworm! Tanner was all about holding the earthworm. 100% boy! 
Carson explored some swampy area for a little, but no luck on anything too fun, just a couple of ducks! 
We ended our nature trail with some scooter riding! Love fun mornings with my boys!
