As a little girl, I always loved hiking and navigating the trails in Fort Payne with my daddy. It was one of the things I looked forward to the most and I couldn't wait to share it with my girls. We loaded up the truck on Saturday morning and made the fifteen minute drive to Little River Canyon and my girls loved every minute of it.

I hope your holiday was as wonderful as ours! {kitchen helpers / big girl bed / early morning cartoons / sausage balls} {Macy's Thanksgiving Parade / silly girl / chocolate chewy bars / my full plate} {feeding herself / post-lunch football / plenty of leftovers / afternoon campfire} {girl time / playing outside / snuggling by the fire with mommy / impromptu family photoshoot} Believe it or not, Ella was in attendance, but she's so independent these days and spent the majority of her day outside with the big kids! ...
