Getting Out and About

We've been blessed with such amazing weather lately we can't help but go outside as much as possible.  Audrey and I try to go for a walk at least three times a week, if not every day, usually to the library.  We've also been very lucky to have a friend here in our apartment complex who has headed up a garden for every apartment here!  We've been so excited to start ours.  It's been our first time gardening so we're a little bit unsure about everything but we're enthusiastic to try!  We haven't had much success yet…but I'm looking at this as a practice run, so I'm not getting discouraged.  Anyways, because of this we have been getting outside often to prep the soil and plan things out.  We sit Audrey on a blanket while we go to work.  It's usually after Andrew gets home so it's nice that the sun is not too bright.  It's in the perfect spot to get some pictures of our cutie pie as she sits on her little blanket discovering nature.




One of our favorite things about being in Provo is the Museum of Art on BYU campus.  It's close, it's free, and it's amaaaaazing.  Another way we've been getting out of the house.

since Andrew works on BYU campus he's able to meet us there after work sometimes.

i love this Minerva Teichert gallery!  my grandma recently gave me a biography of Minvera Teichert and i've really enjoyed reading it so far.  then to come see this and know some background about her…just awesome.  



And lastly here are some pictures from an awesome hike we did a few days ago, as well as a little misty morning walk we took this morning in our pajamas.  This is my favorite weather.



she's a nature baby.  she enjoyed every second of the hike even though it was a lot longer than any others we've done.  imagine seeing a waterfall for the first time!  the world is truly spectacular through child's eyes.  

as usual, the pictures don't do it justice.  the waterfall was so beautiful.  we sat on a nearby rock and had our little lunch.

i can't get enough of these two

The goal this spring/summer is to get outside as much as possible.  We're off to a good start, but we're excited for even more!
