Play Outside

Get Outside & Learn

June 5, 2016 by Erin Vincent Leave a Comment

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

Hardin Park

April 19, 2016 by Erin Vincent Leave a Comment

  Last weekend we took a break from farm life and enjoyed a day at Hardin Park. This is a really lovely park that boasts a duck pond, stream, playground and pool facility. The children were excited to see the large, red train car! They had the best time climbing all over it and pretending they were conductors. I just love their pretend play! We met a mommy and … [Read more...] about Hardin Park

An Afternoon at Garrard Landing Park

February 24, 2016 by Erin Vincent Leave a Comment

  Earlier this week the hubby and I took the children to nearby Garrard Landing Park. This park has a sweet little playground and a nice gravel trail that takes you along the Chattahoochee River. It was a lovely and cool overcast day. Our daughter, Jade, wouldn't hear of wearing the matching outfit I had picked out for her. She has been dressing herself now for since she was 2 years old … [Read more...] about An Afternoon at Garrard Landing Park

Farm Life

July 27, 2015 by Erin Vincent Leave a Comment

  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

Our Week in Pictures

April 5, 2015 by Erin Vincent 30 Comments

This week was one of the most beautiful since spring began. It was fairly warm and the sun was shining here in Georgia. So, we spent most of our time outdoors hiking and climbing trees! The kids used their binoculars or "Onoculist" as my daughter Jade calls them, to look for birds and squirrels. We followed deer tracks and found sweet little flowers on the forest floor. Our Week in … [Read more...] about Our Week in Pictures

The First Hike of Spring

April 4, 2015 by Erin Vincent Leave a Comment

The weather has been steadily warming and today the sun is shining. Its time for a first hike of spring! But first things first...Gabriel wants face paint. He is slightly obsessed with J. R. R. Tolkiens Goblins/ Orks. He seems to feel the face paint somehow connects him to these mysterious creatures. Also, the best way to be prepared for an adventure is...face paint? Well, you never know what … [Read more...] about The First Hike of Spring

A Beautiful Day with Papa

March 28, 2015 by Erin Vincent 14 Comments

An overcast day is full of possibilities. When Papa comes home early, we abandon all other pursuits to go play with him.  As we make our way outside, we stop by the pansy beds to look for bugs. They can only find one lone bee. We stop by the mailboxes so Papa can check the mail. A Beautiful Day Then we make our way to the playground. Papa and Gabriel throw the ball to each other for a … [Read more...] about A Beautiful Day with Papa

This post is part of the What Homeschool Looks Like series over at Our Life At Home. Jade is always moving. After running, jumping, and throwing snowballs in our first snow of the year, my daughter tumbled face first into a mud puddle.
