{Some} Favorite Adventures in 2011

It's fun to look back over the year on the blog and in my Picaboo albums. We had a lot of adventurous hikes and trips. Plenty of time to explore nature in our corner of the planet. I love that. It definitely shows me how we want to continue spending our time this coming year. Watch for more traveling and outdoor play in 2012!
