a beautiful sunday in december

the weather we are having right now is unbelievable!  now, don't get me wrong, i am all for the snow during the  holidays to feel festive but i have to admit that i love having so much warmth and snow for being outdoors and exploring!  the bird and i have been "hiking" a couple times a week, over the past month, but luc hadn't gotten to go with us yet.  we took advantage of yesterday's beautiful weather to get outside for a bit of an adventure.

a good hike is never complete without a roll in the dirt...or something like that.
