The past two weeks rolled by in a blur. End of school assignments to be finished, Summer travel plans to be made and to top it all off we’ve all been sicker than sick! The whole family (minus Emily who stayed strong!) came down with a nasty cold/flu bug but I’m happy to say we’re finally all on the mend! Phew….now on with Summer!
When life gets hectic I crave simplicity and nothing is more peaceful and calming to me than spending time in nature. We recently found a new place to explore on the Salt River and even though we weren’t all feeling 100%, the quiet time we spent wading in the water, collecting rocks and listening to the river as we soaked up the sun, did us all good!

I love this quote! It seems as though we’ve both been inspired by nature this week. Did your children find any bugs and creepy crawlies? So glad that you didn’t let your sickness hold you all back from creating memories!
Rebecca says
They had fun finding snails Emily — always something to see in nature, even in our own backyard when kiddos are involved. 🙂
Brandi says
You always seem to have such great adventures. Hope all stay well and you have a great weekend!

Hey Rebecca,
This is gorgeous 🙂 I’m so glad to have found this link-up! It is refreshing and always so much fun for me to see the little every day details that we tend to overlook if we really aren’t looking. Thank you for the beautiful reminder to soak up in the every day. This is a wonderful link-up and idea, and I’m so glad to be here.
