I was recently reading the brilliant Soule-mama blog where she mentions having the information and photos she has posted made into a blog book and thought wow that would be fantastic. So I am going to start again using this as a journal type of avenue of my thoughts. documenting our lives and then get it made into a book of our memories. So here goes:
On Saturday 7th November, after a breakfast of pancakes with sugar and lemon for Ad his favorite and mine with bananas and honey, we went for a walk in the woods. We took a picnic lunch with us my camera and a collection of bags and baskets to collect fire wood and other interesting things. The weather was bright and sunny with just a little nip in the air, perfect for walking in the woods earlier in the day before sunset. We did find lots of things and explored a part of the woods we have not been to before. Adam spent a lot of the time climbing trees.
He spent some time climbing the trees and we did lots of exploring. We found some beautiful trees and some amazing fungus, one even looked like the wings of a beautiful butterfly.
We stopped to eat our picnic lunch and enjoyed a mug or two of hot chocolate from out flask it was still warm and sweet and very comforting in the slight chill of the afternoon. We brought home various sticks and flowers fungus and even a huge fir cone we thought we could use for a Christmas table decoration, once sprayed with sliver of course and dried out (it was a bit soggy!!)
As the afternoon wore on we got slightly lost and a little concerned as it was now getting dark. So we back tracked the way we had come remembering as beat we could which way that had been. Fortunately as we are both quite observant we made it back ok. We got back into the car and drove on to Asda to do some food shopping. However whilst we were there we could not resist buying a few more Christmas decorations which we are looking forward to putting up soon.
