We visited my family during half term, which is a bit of a journey for us. Our kids are pretty good in the car but even they can run out of patience and sometimes the anxiety about the effort of the journey can eclipse the reason we actually go! On the morning we were going to leave we decided to hang around for a little bit extra time and take the kids and the dog for a burn off some energy walk in the woods. The result was a lovely hour or so extra spent with family, late lunch and then a surprisingly clear 250miles home!. Everyones a winner!
Your pictures are fabulous, the children look like they had a brilliant time, the woods look so wintry. I love your wee Schnauzer too.

Aaah, a Miniature Schnauzer, they are such great little dogs. We used to have one and I adore the breed. The woods you visited look absolutely lovely, the perfect way to burn off some energy prior to a calm car journey.

Your photos really are gorgeous. They would look great on your wall. Woodland scenes and days out are a favourite with us too. Lots of freedom to run about 🙂
What beautiful photos of the children, we love walks in our nearby woods.

What beautiful photos! I really am in awe of you contemplating a 250 mile journey with kids! I always find my kids are better in the car though if they have a run around first!
