Hiking on Tubs Hill

Well, before Brad left, as a family we went hiking on Tubbs Hill. It's a hill right next to the CDA resort and is follows the Lake for most of the way. It's a 2 mile or so hike but we only went a little ways in since the kids get tired before even the 1/2 mile point :) It's beautiful. It was a hot and sunny day. I should have posted these a while ago but just didn't:) So here they are!

Hiking in. Jarrin even brought his camera to take pictures!


Keeley just hanging out on a rock "taking a rest" She has quite the pose for a "rest". It was too cute to pass up a picture:)

She decided to walk out to a rock and play in the water to cool off. If I had the right shoes, I would have joined her! I was ready for a swim . Sawyer was in the Moby Wrap on me! We were stinking hot!




I had to get a picture of this. The kids said it looked like a giant Plankton from Sponge Bob.

This was actually one of the best parts of the hike. We ran into a group of kids who found a rope swing and were debating whether or not to jump. They were scared to death. So we all got involved and egged them on.Since they had an audience, and a girl there watching, they were trying not to be "chickens" . Jarrin couldn't stand it. He was so scared for the kid that was going to jump, so he walked up the hill and kept his head turned. He was so cute and worried. He got over it pretty quick once he saw that no one would get hurt. Then he wanted to see it and watch:)

Keeley thought it was cool. She was the louder one egging them on :)

He finally jumped! They kids all cheered. It was fun! Then we had to hike back! We went and got sandwiches and went home and everyone(especially the kids) crashed for the night! It was great. Brad and I hadn't been up there for a while and it was fun to take the kids for the first time!
