a trip to Narnia

Like most of you, my life is super busy. 
It feels crazy sometimes, 
trying to fit so many things in each week,
while longing for a slower pace.

But there are a few things that I wouldn't trade in
our morning times with God
sweet moments of connection with family
time for art and creativity
time spent in nature.

I try to carve out time for this regularly,
when life is calling me to
do more
I know heaven is calling me to 
be more.

I haven't blogged much
{I didn't blog all of May}

I have made time lately
for some of the things I love
{we need to make time for the things we love}

I'll try to show them here in the next few posts.

Recently I spent a few hours with youngest two kids
{while my older two were away for the day}
at one of our favourite, magical spots.
{a friend called it Narnia}

So they did their math, and read their chapters books
{they both happen to be reading the Chronicles of Narnia}
while in Narnia


Inevitably when we are out,
we start collecting.  
{Rocks, sticks, dandelions, anything goes}


There is something wonderful about collecting treasures from natures.
We took most of our treasures home 
and we are in the midst of using them in some fun and useful projects.  
{I'll post more about that another day.}

Lastly, here is a little beauty that stopped long enough for me to snap a few pictures of it:


It was a wonderfully peaceful, happy time,
like water to a thirsty soul.
In our little bit of Narnia.
