Take a Hike! :)

We've had a fun week!! As I mentioned last week, we had two field trips scheduled (one with Zander's class and one to help out a teacher friend at school) and two field days scheduled (both at my school..... I only made it to one since I was being "mom" on Zander's trip for the second day of our field day).  We also had some baseball in there and decided to enjoy the great outdoors and take a hike!  Fortunately, the weather cooperated for all the outdoor events!  We had some rain today on our hike but we were able to plan it that when the worst of the rain came through, we were eating lunch under an enclosed shelter.  I was impressed that our boys were able to make the 3 mile hike (which was marked strenuous.... and we even had someone on the trail tell us it might be too difficult for the kids!)  I guess we are a real "outdoors" family because we knocked it out with minimal complaining from the children or the adults! ;)  As you can see from the pictures, Maddox probably had the easiest time because he was carried in the backpack!

A couple other pictures from our week.... Zander had to dress as a clown one day for school.  He went for a striped shirt and plaid shorts along with spiky hair and a red nose!  I like the new hairstyle!  We might need to do it more often! ;)

Just to compare..... we went to the same place three years ago.... so here is Zander at 2 years old and 5 years old on the same wagon ride!

We love bath time...especially with bubbles!! We have to do baths every night with these dirty boys!  They also love taking showers with daddy!
Hiking fun!
