Our Daily Walks...


Almost everyday Nixon and I would take a walk down the road we lived on. It was a steep little hill actually so going down and then back up was enough..for both of us:)
I wanted to remember our little walks and everything Nixon did...EVERY TIME we went on a walk!
We would always have to stop at the neighbors house and check out the flowers... where we would smell them, NOT pick them!
Then we would cross the street because Nixon would say "Wader, Wader"
We could always HEAR the water before we got there and Nixon would say "Hear it" and put his hand to his ear..it is adorable!


He would always want to pick up the rocks in the little stream of water and throw them into the BIG pond part of the water feature. I tried to discourage this of course but somehow a few rocks always made it from one place to another!!

There was a lot of just sitting and watching the water fall too!! Instant entertainment!

Across the street there was another water feature but this one you couldn't throw rocks into so it wasn't AS BIG of a hit with Nixon but we still liked it. Nixon would always TRY to throw some rocks in...and some would sadly make it threw their barricade...OOPS!

He would always walk up to this house, I wasn't sure why. He would walk up the grass and then climb down the stairs.

This house also... he would actually sometimes try the door knob...luckily it was never open:)
He liked the little porch on this house I think!

Then the STEPS!! There was two sets of steps on the way down the hill and I would lift him up so he could walk down them!!

Up and down he would go....

Then the "BOAT"... there was always this boat parked in the driveway and of course it was always a hit. We would walk around it sometimes but just to touch it was fun too!

Some days we would sit on the curb and pick up pebbles or see the bugs!!

And of course one more stop at the "Wader" before we would make it back home!

I loved our daily walks together at this house!! We will miss it!
