My daughter loves to ride in the car. If we could drive anywhere it would make traveling much easier for us!
Since she enjoys riding in the car so much it actually makes impromptu drives easier. However, there is still the land of the "unknown" once we arrive. We could live a life of "what-ifs" and not do anything....but we don't. We go, we do and we take it minute by minute.
This morning my husband and I tried paddle boarding together for the first time. It was so much fun and I highly recommend it! We spent 2 hours on the river this morning and it was the perfect way to start off the day. The water was calm, you could hear nature and it was incredibly peaceful. I guess being on the water this morning made us want to see water this afternoon....with the kids.
After lunch we put in the kids in the car and drove to the river....or the rivah. My daughter loves being by any type of water....pool, lake, river, ocean...you name it....she loves it! I honestly find she is more relaxed near water.
After driving around we stopped for an ice cream treat. My daughter chose mint chocolate chip for herself and enjoyed every last bite. Ice cream treats are the best wherever you go!
i scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream!
"Impromptu" drives, get togethers, events, etc.....are the best. I truly love them. Typically there is no stress involved and you just go with the flow. We are so blessed we are able to enjoy impromptu "things" as I remember the day we could not.....and it wasn't fun.
Having fun without the planning involved is the best and also is a nice surprise for everyone. And of course when there is water involved it is a double bonus. No matter spring, summer, fall or winter being by the water instantly soothes the soul.
Here is a quote for today.....
When you do things from your soul, you feel a river moving in you, a joy- Rumi
