Labor Day Fun

We were already planning a little hiking trip when some friends called and invited us along. Andy studied before and after - so glad to have convinced him away from the books for a few hours! We had so much fun!!! It was the most beautiful day and the scenery was perfect and the company cheerful! We even sang some camp songs as we hiked along! The kids had so much fun just climbing over everything!
AUGHH!!! Reversed the order. These are most of the kids posing - so sweetly! This was the very beginning of the hike so they were still willing to look at the camera.
And all the parents catching the cute picture...
Waiting for the kids to climb on rocks. Emily did FABULOUS in the backpack! The ENTIRE time - about 2 hours!
This was one of our climbing down adventures. Notice the massive amounts of dirt on Ben's jeans...
Here is my cute little Dusty Bottoms! Everyone got such a kick out of her cute bum! Annie shocked us with her amazing climbing abilities. With no problem at all, she kept up with Ben and the other big kids. They ranged from 15 years to 2 1/2 years. Such a span but we all had a great time! We finished with a picnic in a huge field.
I really want to make the time to go back next month when the trees are changing colors. The kids keep telling me that fall is here because one or two trees have a little bit of brown on them. How little they know... :) Can't wait to show them what Fall is SUPPOSED to look like!
