first hike of the summer


to kick of memorial day weekend we took a hike up bells canyon. trevan's work bff joey met us and off we went. i have done this hike before and knowing that i had done it before i knew i could do it again. it is a beautiful short hike but its pretty steep and rocky. i was glad that joey was there so i couldn't complain to trevan too much (i am a big baby and TOTALLY out of shape). the best part of it all is that jude hiked the whole thing by himself! he was my hero that day. i was amazed he did it, he of course whined quite a bit but with a little distraction and a few stops, my tiny little trooper made it up that mountain. this was the first time he's had to hike by himself and he did great. now that we have gretsie she takes priority in the backpack. after we were done jude told us "next time we can go on baby hike for me. okay?". like i said, it was a little steeper than i remember but he did it.

joey, prets, and trev.
greta loved every minute of being in that backpack, as she should!


the 2 big babies that made it to the top! 
i am SO proud of my little jude.

I love, love, love Bells Canyon. It's great fun to take the whole trip and come down Little Wild Horse too! (Maybe when the wee's are a bit bigger, it's nine miles but nine glorious miles!)
