Hiking Practice

Last Saturday was a BEAUTIFUL sunny day, so Dad (Grant) decided we should go on a practice hike.   We piled in the boys' backpacks and the dog and away we went.  There is a beautiful place called Cascadia with an amazing waterfall!  The trail to the waterfall is only about a mile in...so it was a fairly easy trek. (2 miles total).

Little hikers, ready for action!

Isaac, Grant,(Sadie, the dog), Michael, and Zechariah.


That's Isaac (4 years old), doing a great job!

Michael is doing a good job too.  No pack for him on this trip, but he does have a small one we will try later.

Up, up, up!

We made it to the top!  See the pretty waterfall!


Hard worker, Zechariah, (6 years) is heading back down the trail.

Isaac, ready to head back down the trail.

Down, we go! 
Thank you, Lord for a wonderful family day.  What an amazing Father we have to give us sweet times on this earth to enjoy family and His beautiful creation.

"Your mercy, O LORD, is in the heavens; Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds.  Your righteousness is like the great mountains; Your judgements are a great deep; O LORD, You preserve man and beast."
Psalm 36:5-6

Very cute! I see Michael's legs are getting longer. It won't be long till he gives his brothers a run for it.

Your passion for being a wife/mother is clearly seen and I know your family benefits from it.
