sprinkler time




We are at my sister-in-law's house this weekend and she suggested putting the sprinkler out for Isaiah to play in. He's not a huge fan of water, but seemed to be okay with running through the sprinkler. So cute and fun to watch!!



Superior Hiking Trail






The plan was that on Father's Day we were going to go on this beautiful hike on a 3.2 mile section of the Superior Hiking Trail. However, because we have kids, things did not go as planned (plus the weather was crummy). So, needless to say, we didn't get our hike in.










So, since Nathan and I are both off this summer, we woke up one morning and decided that today was the day we were going to attempt our hike. It ended up going quite smoothly and was beautiful. It was a bit of an adventure due to the bear and deer tracks we saw. Plus, moments after going under a railroad track, a small train came overhead and was fun to see. It was wonderful taking advantage of such a beautiful day in nature. We love the fact that there are so many parks and trails in the middle of the city.






The boys seemed to have fun too, and didn't have to work too hard on the hike! :)
