Winter Hike with Friends

December 10, 2016 by Erin Vincent Leave a Comment

  Winter has come to East Tenneesee and while it's still considered fall (a minor technicality, really as the Winter Solstice is only a few days away) the temperatures agree with me. At 30 degrees on our favorite mountain, it is winter my friend. The cold is nipping at our noses and we have broken out the scarves, mittens, and winter coats! Imagine the thrill and delight we had when our … [Read more...] about Winter Hike with Friends

What do you do when your children are full of energy and bouncing off the walls? If your children are anything like mine, then they are filled with a boundless energy. This natural occurrence can be hard to contain indoors. We like to make our way outside where there are no walls to bounce off of and you know what? It's inevitable that we'll learn a few things in the process. This post may … [Read more...] about Get Outside & Learn

Celebrating Earth Day in the Rain

April 25, 2016 by Erin Vincent Leave a Comment

  April 22nd is celebrated around the world as Earth Day. Many people plant trees, help clean up trash or even recycle. We found our Earth Day to be a soggy wet day....but, that is part of living on this Earth...the weather! So, we donned our rain boots, raincoats and umbrellas and headed out into the rain to a nearby creek. What better way to appreciate the Earth than being out in it? … [Read more...] about Celebrating Earth Day in the Rain

Farm Life

  Last week my husband and I took our children up to the beautiful state of Tennessee. We were visiting my sister and brother-in-law on their farm for eight days. There were so many memorable adventures that this may turn into an eight part series, HA! First off let me say that the car ride up is about four and a half hours depending on traffic. The night before my husband and I … [Read more...] about Farm Life

Lions & Tigers & Bears, Oh My!

May 4, 2015 by Erin Vincent Leave a Comment

  On Saturday, we decided to visit an animal sanctuary called Noah's Ark. We felt this would make a great family outing as well as an educational experience for us all. It is located just south of Atlanta, Georgia. I adore the mission behind this non profit sanctuary. They are dedicated to providing homes to injured, abused and orphaned animals, they provide a place of love for animals … [Read more...] about Lions & Tigers & Bears, Oh My!

Our Family Hike Along the River

April 20, 2015 by Erin Vincent 37 Comments

  Sunday is the only day of the week that my husband is off. We decided to spend our day together out in nature, at the Jones Bridge Trail off of the Chattahoochee River. This beautiful trail is a 4.6 mile loop that includes remnants of the old bridge built in 1904, dismantled and largely stolen in the 1940's, as well as access to the river itself. We arrived around 10am and the trail was … [Read more...] about Our Family Hike Along the River

A Day in the Life of an Unschooled Scientist

April 13, 2015 by Erin Vincent 32 Comments

  Gabriel and I both woke up at 8am. He went into his "LEGO Room" to build while I made breakfast. Around 9:30am my toddler, Jade, was up and ready to get the day going. When I asked them what we should do first they immediately yelled "Go Outside!" Okey Dokey, outside it will be. We headed for our favorite trail that circles around our apartment complex. It is awesome, because you feel … [Read more...] about A Day in the Life of an Unschooled Scientist
