Summer 2013 Fun: Hiking

Jon and I would both like to be doing more hiking as a family--great way to spend time together, enjoy nature and get some exercise.  We haven't been able to schedule as many hikes into our busy schedule as we had hoped though--and have found that Grant quickly runs out of steam on hikes (much more than a mile is pushing it).  Ethan at the same age was more of a natural hiker and not quite as whiny about tired legs, etc!  Grant also has a preference for more mountainous/dirt trail type hikes over anything paved (like a couple hikes/walks we've taken).  We'll keep working at becoming more of a hiking family!
 
Lise doesn't get tired--since she gets to ride!


One hike we ended at this old log cabin and stopped for a snack break!


She likes to stretch her legs too!



 When Grant gets tired--then we each get to hold a kid! (we switch off who gets which kid)
