A hike... in the fall leaves... couldn't live anywhere cooler!

Up near Sundance- 10 miles from the house... we fall upon this landscape! I am finding all the new hiking trails! This one I took everyone on, leads up to some falls just two miles up. About the first mile was filled with "my feet hurt" "are we almost there?" "can we take a break" but those soon faded away as we traveled up the mountain into the fall leaves and this crazy thing called nature made us all want to get to the top!

"oowwwhh it's cold!" Syd said- as we got to the first waterfall...
Chris & Syd try to take a side trail down by the falls-


And at the second falls, we travel into the deep oasis! Adventure is written all over Syd's face :)

Cool tree along the way!
I'm just in the hugging mood.. nature makes my heart happy!



Da boys..... just being the cool beings that they are....

Chris and his little girl :)
Me- in love with this hike wanting to hug the world heheehehe i'm a nerd! a big one... make me stop!







Cayden... soaking it all in- enjoying the fact that after this we are hiking down, which is much easier :)

What incredible scenery! And to think that it's all pretty much in our backyard! I LOVE it! I need to get into the mountains more. It's such a refreshing feeling to be up there for some reason. It's God's country!! :)
