Out hiking

    We have family in town visiting from out of state right now and a few of us decided to go on a hike to one of the lakes in our area.  The views are great and it's so peaceful being up in the mountains. 

It probably took us a little over an hour to get to the lake.  All the kids did great and this was the first year that Emma could make it with out being packed at all.  :)

 

 We hung out at the lake for a while and let the kids explore, climb and have a snack before heading back down the trail.  Dan always has to work when we do these hikes during the day.  One of these weekends, the kids and I are going to plan another hike where we can bring him along with us.  The kids will be able to show him what great little hikers they are turning out to be.  :)
