walkers

Did you know it's National Walk to School day?

Our school is 1.5 miles away, but we did it!

I felt like the Pied Piper as we walked.

We started out with my five kids and two neighbor boys.

A few houses down, a neighbor girl joined us.

Then another neighbor boy.

Then two more neighbor boys joined in.

Once we got onto the main road to school, we joined lots of other families walking.

The police were out monitoring all the walking commotion and then once we got to school they had smoothies and cut up fruit for all the walkers.

Yay for walking on a crisp, cool fall morning!

(The boys thought it was so fun that they'd like to walk every single morning.  Then I reminded them of the snow that is coming. Boo.)
