scenic hike

I love to hike. Tonight we went on our first "family of 6" hike, and it was so much fun! The kids did great, and the trail was long (over 1.5 miles each way!) and not flat. Chris & I got a work out carrying the babies (his was much heavier than mine:). Here are some pics of our adventure:
(over the shoulder shot)

there was a lot of pointing at cool things "mom take a picture of this"

and a super cool tree house
the 3 big kids running down the path
Paul was so excited to go over this bridge
all 4 kids (that's an apple in Anna's mouth:)
the beach at the end of the trail
Ian smiling at mom
He loved the hike, didn't make a peep the whole time!


Everett found this and decided, "this must have been a hanger the cave men used"


don't you love silhouette shots...Chris always thinks of cool pics to take

you guys always have such great pictures! Where is this hike?! It looks really beautiful. And yes... I kind of hate you for how good you look after just having a baby. Amazing!

Looks like a fun hike, and I love all the pictures--especially that one of Ian smiling up at you. Too precious.
