Oh, you know the one........just right for rolling down,
Running towards it, hair blowing in the wind........anticipation making those tiny legs pump just a little bit faster.........
And then........and then............flying downwards.........ponytail streaming behind you...........
the rush of wind on your back, .......momentum flinging you down that hill......
Wondering if you've ever gone this fast........spinning and flying..........tumbling.....
laughing with pure undisguised glee......butterflies in your tummy........
joy in motion.........
exhaling at the end......believing this may have been your fastest time EVER!
giggling and catching your breath.........before dashing back up again to do it all over again. And again..........
the rush of wind on your back, .......momentum flinging you down that hill......
Wondering if you've ever gone this fast........spinning and flying..........tumbling.....
laughing with pure undisguised glee......butterflies in your tummy........
joy in motion.........
exhaling at the end......believing this may have been your fastest time EVER!
giggling and catching your breath.........before dashing back up again to do it all over again. And again..........
Do you remember that? Gosh, I do too.

It doesn't get any better than that! Pure joy.
Oh man, these are awesome! I can almost hear the giggles coming out of the screen! Not only do I remember doing this myself, I'm not inspired to go do this *right* now! FUN!!!
Beautiful captures of exuberant JOY!
Tyler looks so grown up in that first picture. They looked like they were having a blast rolling down that hill! The look on their faces say it all! Lexie just figured out how to roll around the living room carpet and she thinks it's funny when she rolls into a piece of furniture. I think she would love that downward momentum of rolling down a hill!
AWESOME!! The photos capture the joy so beautifully!
Awesome shots! Tyler looks like such a big boy.
I just saw your comment on Tiff's blog...and YES we are totally coming to Texas next summer!! Can't wait to meet you :)
Oh my how fun!!
Tyler looks waaaaay to big and grown up in those first few shots!! Tell him to STOP growing up!!!
Love the pure GLEE on both of their faces:)
Oh, what a sweet post Lisa. You really captured and froze that moment that, I think, we all can remember. Total abandonment at it's best!
You brought it back so vividly. Love the joy we always see on your sweetie's faces.
Have fun the rest of the week, my friend!

When I was 4, I broke my arm in 3 places racing my cousin down a big, grassy hill!!! It's one of our family's favorite stories to tell, and I am glad your rolling down a hill experience was better than mine. T looks like Elvis in that first picture, and I LOVE IT!!!! Your kids are always so smiley and happy!!! It is a testament to good parenting I think! XOXO
You totally captured the rapture.
LOL

Oh yeah! Those are the moments we all remember and because of your catching them on camera even Tyler will "remember" doing it. Now I have to go find a hill for Lexie!
What a joy to look at those pics and bring me back to such sweet times..got me thinking my kids have NOT ROLLED DOWN A HILL IN A very LONG time...seems we need to find ourselves a hill.
Your kids look so blissful:)
i do remember! isn't that so funny!? i tried it as an adult a year or two with Jude and indi. let me tell ya, it was a lot less fun and a lot more painful! LOL
We taught min man how to roll down a hill this summer. He didn't quite get that all he has to do is let gravity take him. oh well. there's always next summer.
Ohhh, I do! Beautiful shots, Lisa! Beautiful moments caught. :)
I do remember and need to get Aiden on a hill ASAP after seeing your amazing pictures. So much joy captured!!
Oh pure joy! Yes, we've been testing the hills out here too!
But your photos captured so many memories as well as looks I've been seeing around here of late as well! Love love love all of them.... your two amazingly beautiful children with those huge smiles and obvious glee written all over both faces!
Such a fun post that I will now go back to look over again!
