December Nature Walks

Although the weather is more seasonal now, we had some absolutely incredible days at the beginning of the week. We went out to the woods one lovely afternoon and enjoyed the December scenery.

 We explored paths we couldn't explore earlier in the year, when the thick foliage had barred our passage.

 

And we brought back some fallen twigs and pine cones, which we used to create a gumdrop tree scene. Em had the idea to use the pine cones around the bottom as underbrush.
