It's Why We Love Sundays

At our house, Sunday is a rest day.
We attend church in the evening, and altho it took some getting used to,
Since we were raised going to church every Sunday morning,
We have learned to love our Sunday schedule...or lack of.
We often spend the day doing something together as a family.
In the summer, it could be tennis, biking, swimming, a picnic...
Since the weather is cooling off here,
We wanted to make the most of our time outside this Sunday.
So we headed for a nearby back 40 with the kids.

 There were woods to be explored, 
And teepee's to be built.
Along with the attempted grass mats for flooring
And the stacked cobs of corn for future preservation
 There is something about the smell of fall
And that crunch of leaves

 We took the kids to a pond
And attempted to fish
But apparently our casting skills are rusty
And we had lots of tangled lines, plenty of drowned worm, and too much mud for fish to bite.
 I'm laughing at these pictures
Because if you knew my family,
you'd know that seldom do they wear red neck hats.
Or look so much like the kind of dudes that fish, drink beer, and drive big 4x4's
 Oh, it just felt so good to sit, enjoy the sunshine 
And the beginning colors of fall
