tyler called me this afternoon and said he was on his way home from work to spend some time with riley & i. what a great surprise! we loaded into the car when he got home, got some coffee and walked my favorite trail during the fall season.
we stopped a few times along the way to snap some photos, adjust riley and steer doc away from other dogs and people on the trail.
riley became pretty antsy on the way back, so we did lots of shuffling back and forth, trying to keep her entertained so we could make it back to the car.
her main focus these days to get on the ground and show off her walking skills, as well as pick everything up and thoroughly investigate
it. it made for a slow walk back to the car! but we were in no hurry, as we were just enjoying our time together and our spontaneous little jaunt. it felt great to break out of routine and spend some extra time with tyler. these times together can really rejuvenate and refresh the heart. and better yet, riley went right to sleep tonight, the best treat of all!

that is the best! i loved reading this post and seeing your photos, elizabeth. what a great afternoon spent as a family, enjoying the fall season.
and cora and riley together, in the post below--those two couldn't be any cuter. what a team! it sounds like you had such a fun weekend with your friends; i love how you chose to spend your time together--biking, going to the farmer's market, a cozy lunch at home, breakfast at a cafe...just perfect, if you ask me!
and congrats on a successful traverse a few weeks ago! very inspiring and fun!
Oh, that is so perfect! I'm glad that you had some extra time together. So needed! We had a great time with you over the weekend! You really treated us and we appreciated it so deeply.
Wish we could see you more often!
