Exciting Times Outdoors

I feel pretty strongly that children need to get OUTDOORS as much as possible.  They need to roam through the woods, play in dirt, throw sticks or rocks, and just be in the fresh air as many days as possible during the year. 

I feel as strongly about this as I do about reading to your kids!

So needless to say, we took advantage of a lot of outdoor time during the fall.

We are fortunate to live in a neighborhood that backs directly up to the woods and the river, so it isn’t too hard to find places to explore.  On this particular day, my children and their cousins wandered across the way into a dry creek bed for some exploring fun.

They stayed with Poppy and “Uncle” Eric (Daddy) for quite some time.  When I saw them returning home, they were pretty excited about a treasure they discovered in the woods!

Is that what I think it is?

Yes.  Yes it is.

So…what to do with a deer skull?
