Last week B. had fall vacation, a whole week of spending time together as a family!
The weather was beautiful all week, and one day we decided to go for a hike in a nearby forest.
//
B. carried Micha in the Beco, it had been a while since Micha had been strapped in like that and at first he was not having it.
Luckily he decided he liked being carried and we were able to enjoy a fun little family hike.
We stopped half way on a hill overlooking a herd of sheep grazing in the valley below.
Their shepherd ( a girl!) was sitting close by drinking tea and reading a book while her dogs tended to the sheep. Isn't that the coolest job?
We ate a picnic of sandwiches and hot chocolate and when our bellies were full we carried on with our walk.
At the end of our hike we took a family picture on the same spot we took ours last year.
One of us has changed quite a bit!
2012 / 2013 I think we might make this an annual tradition. We love hikes in the fall! Love, Maria |
You used to have a puppy?
ReplyDeleteAlso, that shepherd job sounds so romantically ideal. Except when it rains probably;)
Ha, no that was just some random dog that photo bombed us ;)
DeleteAnd no, shepherding in the rain doesn't seem as romantic...
aw how fun! We have that same thermos! Apparently we both like Ikea or something.. ;)
ReplyDeleteHow can one not like Ikea, haha!

ReplyDeleteYou guys are such a cute family :-) And I'm pretty sure shepherd just made it to the top of my dream job list! Sounds completely ideal :-)
ReplyDeleteThe scenery is just so beautiful! Where did you take these pictures? It's fair to say you have inspired me to go on a fall hike :). Great post!
