JUL18VSNE ~ Friday, July 13, 9pm ~ The Great Outdoors
Challenge Title: The Great Outdoors
Hostess: Michelle (aka mit240z)
Keyword: JUL18VSNE
Date: Friday, July 13, 9pm
Having young children, the hubby and I prefer to stay home and enjoy some always needed family time. But having four boys means finding ways to burn off some energy also. Nothing does that better than the great outdoors. I love being able to hang out in our backyard all day while only being steps away from all the comforts of home. Another favorite of ours is to go walking the paths in the nearby woods.
My challenge to you is to bring the great outdoors to your card.

Michelle, I love our walking paths in our new neighborhood. We even have a rail to trail bike/walking path just in back of us. When our grandchildren were younger we would go to parks, and walking paths, land do etterboxing. A great staycation activity, as well as when you are on trips. I will be back with my card! Love your challenge.
The paths and trails are the best way to get away without going anywhere. We found a trail last spring that has a small creek going through it. The boys love going there, it's their favorite one!
I just love looking at flowers when I go outside walking, and lately I've been taking a lot of close up pictures of them. The sunflower is one of my all time favorite flowers. Thank you Michelle for this lovely challenge!
For some reason, this challenge got me thinking about time in the mountains with my family. My dad and I would sit outside as much as possible. One of these days I’m going to have a porch with a swing Sit a spell by fl_beachbum - at Splitcoaststampers

Thanks for a great challenge, Michelle! I've had the idea for this in mind for a few days now but have not been able to find the time this week so I combined with the WT today.
Hope that is okay! Jul18VSNE Night Rider by sleepyinseattle - at Splitcoaststampers
