Southampton

Hiiii! :)

For the past five or six summers, my family and I go to Southampton for a few days. One of our extended family members has a cottage there that they let us use it, which is very nice of them! This time, My mom, two of my brothers and my sister came (my dad and other brother had to work).

 This is honestly one of my favourite places to go. It is just so beautiful! The beach is only a minute walk from the cottage and it is nice and sandy (It's on Lake Huron). There are different beach spots along thee shore line, so we drove to a couple. There are also a lot of lighthouses here and it's just perfect!!
The weather was amazing today and the sunset was absolutely breathtaking! I just love sitting by the water and watching the sun set. It calms me and makes me feel so much better. The beauty of it is so incredible!
Here are some pictures from this evening:

First we went to a cute little lake and fed some ducks.

Fairy Lake (the name is so cute!)

 The we went to one of the main roads with the beach at the end of it, got some ice cream, and then just sat and looked out at the water.

My sister and I enjoying the view (Lake Huron)

 From this spot we could see a lighthouse to our right, so we got in the car and drove down the road to see it up close.

He didn't know I was taking his picture :P

After little while here we decided to head back to the cottage. My mom and I then walked to the spot on the beach that is closest to us and watched the sunset. It was beautiful! And at this beach you can see yet another light house :)

I really enjoyed myself this evening with my family and there is just something about being here that makes me feel  really happy. We have a couple more days here and I plan to make the most of them. Now I am off to star gaze! (although the moon is quite bright so I don't know how well this will go).
I hope you all had a wonderful day as well,

Beautiful Nature

Hiiii! :)

Today was absolutely gorgeous (well it rained early in the morning but that cleared up quickly). The sun was shining, it was the perfect temperature and it was jut wonderful being outside!This afternoon I decided to just enjoy the nice weather and read on my porch with my dog. I actually finished reading The Last Song a couple hours ago and I really liked it, although the last few chapters are very emotional.  Personally I like it a lot better than the movie but that's what usually happens. :)

As I sat on my porch I just put my book down for a bit and enjoyed the scenery. There was actually quite a lot of activity on this particular day. There has been a coyote near my house the past few weeks and it made another appearance today. My dog tried to run after it, but thankfully the coyote was beyond my dog's electric fence line. They had a little stare down but when I grabbed Jasper the coyote got scared and ran away.

Sorry it's a bit blurry, he was kind of trotting away but here is the coyote

The coyote was definitely the biggest animal I saw today, but I got to see so many other wonderful creatures as well:

We have a few bird feeders and I love seeing all the pretty birds that come to visit!

This was a baby bunny that wandered onto our lawn, but he ran off before I got too close

There were even cute ducks in the creek beside our house

Jasper enjoyed the nice weather too!

Today was such a wonderful day. It was nice to be able to sit outside and just enjoy nature. As you can probably tell from previous blog posts, I do enjoy being outside. It's just so peaceful and it's nice to be able to slow down every now and then.
I hope you all had a wonderful day, feel free to leave any thoughts you may have below!
