A family hike

We headed up to Mt. Falcon for some family fun. Stephen loved picking up rocks and putting them in his pocket as he walked. There were some threatening clouds, so we headed back down and hung out in the picnic shelter. Stephen had fun climbing on the rocks and chasing the crows.

Water Fun

We took advantage of a great sprayground/park before it closed down for the winter. The boys had a very fun time!

Happy birthday, Daddy!

Daddy took off work on his birthday yesterday, so we were able to have a fun day celebrating him! We started by opening presents.

 Next, we discovered some deer hanging out by our swingset.

Stephen wanted to take a picture of the deer also.

 Then, we headed up to our favorite mountain spot with a stop in Georgetown.

Stephen wanted to take our picture.

After lunch we headed towards our rock. We didn't hike all the way in but did enough hiking to satisfy Stephen who had been wanting to walk on a mountain.

2 happy boys!

Throwing rocks in the river

 After eating tacos for supper (Steve's favorite), we had a birthday German chocolate cake (also Steve's favorite). The boys were very excited to help Daddy blow out the candles.

Outdoor fun

The boys LOVE playing outside!

Vroom! Vroom!

Park fun

Swimming, swimming

We used our Goldfish pool at the beginning of June. It was a little cooler than I anticipated, but we still had fun. Paul was a bit hesitant at first and then loved it. After about 20 minutes, he crawled over to me ready to warm up. Stephen refused to get in but then changed his mind and had a great time.

Momma enjoyed the pool as well.

Finally, Stephen decided it wasn't too bad.
