1. We live in a beautiful area of this country. Of course I already knew this, but as we hide out indoors through the winter I tend to forget it. So the first hike of the summer is always like seeing the area anew. Don't you feel peaceful just looking at these photos? (which were taken by our budding photographers, Mattie and Lauren by the way):
2. My kids need to do things like this - it makes them happy, it keeps them active, and it gives them a chance to have fun together. Hopefully the memories of their childhood will be like that - happy, fun times with their brothers and sisters.
The perfect day for a little boy: climbing...
jumping....
and playing in the dirt!
I'm not saying the afternoon was perfect - there were some tears and some scratches and we were exhausted at the end of the trail, but despite all of that it was a great day!
Beautiful scenery and great pictures!
