As summer came close to ending, we decided we needed to get up in the mountains so we headed up to Donut Falls.
Our kids are finally at a good age for hiking! Lucy and Sammy are both big enough and strong enough to do a short hike (this one was 1 1/2 miles round trip) and Eliza is still little enough to be in the carrier.
We had a great time taking turns "being point" and posing for pictures by the river.
It was beautiful weather and there were a lot of people there but not too many that we didn't get to have the trail to ourselves at times too.
The kids loved stopping on the rocks for snacks.
Family shot.
You can see the falls just behind Sammy's head in this picture. We didn't go any further because there were a ton of people at the top and it didn't feel safe taking the kids on all those rocks in the river.
Eliza was pretty happy in the carrier as long as either Spencer was moving or she had food. :)
We stopped on the way back down to have a picnic lunch.
There is something that makes eating on a blanket more fun! :)
And we couldn't leave without first playing a game of hide and seek!
This little cutie loved getting down and playing in the dirt!
Good bye summer! We'll miss you!
