When did hiking become so difficult

So, I took the kids to one of our old stomping grounds.  The boulder fields reminds me of my earlier climbing days.  I really miss climbing and would like to get back into it in the fall.  The man below happened upon us and really wanted a picture of Silas with his dog.  Harmless, right?  He was a little strange and then proceeded to ask for contact info to send the pictures he took.  I declined and likely will not participate in this type of encounter again. We had fun, but wow hiking is alot harder with two toddlers in tow.  I am blessed to be able to spend so much time with them.  They are growing up so fast.



My budding climber.  Do they make climbing shoes his size...




Si is a pretty good photographer.  I sometimes can't believe I let him handle our camera...  I am hoping I never regret it.

Happy Mother's Day!

For Mother's Day, we went to a state park.  The beach left a lot to be desired, but the kids enjoyed the 20 minutes I was able to endure.  We then went paddle boating.  Si was all about it.  Anna not so much.  She was so scared.  She is usually adventurous, I guess water and boats are not her cup of tea.  At least for now.










Finally content with me holding her..
