keeping our sanity

So when we know our schedule for the afternoon is going to be football, football and football, how do we spend our morning?

Some good outside time with lots of running and discovering for all of us!

 

We ran in awesome open spaces!
 
And ran.

 
And ran.

 
Until we could not run anymore!

 
Then we turned our attention to some very cool sights in the grass all around us.

 
 
It was a great early morning adventure that wore us all out! And then we could really enjoy an afternoon of watching the Bears have a great game!

The Nitty Gritty!

I really think it is important to keep our life balanced. When I know the girls will be spending a significant amount of time indoors, sitting or needing to be quiet I make sure to balance that with active, outdoor time as well. Being aware of this and making the effort to get the activity when you can makes the times where they have to be inside or sitting still a bit easier to handle for everyone!
