Happy Fall, Y'all

Here are our annual fall pictures from Big Woods Lake! 

Using his binoculars!

A couple walking their dog stopped and offered to take a few pictures.

Davis climbed into the stroller while these pictures were taken. 

As we were finishing up the pictures of Luke and me, I saw the stroller start to roll down the embankment and tip over...with Davis in it! Poor buddy was scared more than anything and had a big scratch down his whole arm. 

Poor Davis was still recovering from his fall.

Show Mommy your muscles!

Luke's expression is hilarious!

Happy Fall, Y'all

For the last two years I have taken the boy on a walk around Big Woods Lake. This year Daddy got off work early. The boy rode his bike around the lake and Luke rode in the stroller. We stopped often for photo ops!

All Done!

Happy Fall, Y'all

This afternoon I was in North Cedar Falls so I decided to take the boy on a walk around Big Woods Lake. Here are pictures from our walk:

The bridge: 

"Up to no good" look

A glimpse to see if I am near...

and he's off...

The path: 

When we lived in Cedar Falls, I ran this route all the time. During our runs, I would share with Jenny how difficult it was for us to start a family. Both of us knew that in due time, we would be going on walks around Big Woods Lake with my baby! Today I didn't get to run around Big Woods Lake with my dear friend. Instead, the boy and I strolled and sometimes walked along the path. Yes, it took twice as long as it used to but I wouldn't have it any other way!
