Hiking family

Now that we live by real mountains, we have enjoyed hiking.  We hiked the Y for Family Home Evening one Monday night in July.  The kids were able to hike by themselves the whole way.... with only a few complaints.  :)  They were very happy when we reached the top.

Lizzy got tired faster than Matthias, but they were both tough enough to make it to the top.

We made it to the very top of the Y!

A couple weeks later we went hiking around Rock Canyon.  I think the kids like that one a little better because the trail isn't too bad, but you can find other paths that are different levels--so kind of like a choose your own adventure.  They keep asking when we can go back and were disappointed to learn that Rock Canyon Park is different from the actual Rock Canyon.
