Oh Snap Wednesday {LINKY} - 11/9

There is an orchard down the street from our house. Walnuts, I think. Some kind of nut...anyway, it's one of my favorite places to take pictures (of Noelle). 


She calls it "the forest." I can imagine how big it must feel to her. Have you ever revisited a place from you childhood that was gigantic to you back then, but tiny as an adult? Mr. G and I recently drove by the middle school we attended and could not believe how small it is to us now compared to how massive and intimidating it was all those years ago. 


Once she's deep into the "forest" she twirls around and pretends to be Rapunzel. I love watching her play and dance and smile and be the amazing little girl she is. 


One day she'll drive down this street and remember all the times we stopped and became princesses. She'll no longer see the magical forest but hopefully she'll remember all the fun we had chasing woodland creatures and making precious memories together.
