1st Tree Hugging Trip!

Colton's 1st Tree Hugging & Hiking Trip!

We decided to get out of the heat & have one last hooray before the school year started. Wes switched shifts to help out a co-worker which gave him Sunday & Monday off. Saturday morning he had the brilliant idea that we should get out of town for the night. So, we came up with a stay-cation at Mt. Charleston (it's about 1 hr 20 min drive from our house). It was a perfect getaway...about 80* during the day, 56* at night and far enough away that we felt like we had a little vacay. Thanks honey for the great idea! :)


my 2 guys.

Colton started off facing me in the front-pack. We quickly decided to see if he'd like facing out better...and that he did!

We briefly chatted with the nicest people while hiking. Everyone said hi and commented on our cute little hiker. :)







We stayed Sunday night at the Lodge on Mt. Charleston. It was nice...but lesson learned that it's not so easy sharing the same room with a 6 mo that doesn't want to go to bed while the lights are still on and we're watching tv. He just didn't want to miss anything. Needless to say...it was a late night for Mommy & Daddy.



Wes rocked the front-pack on Day 2.

i LOVE my family.

Hiking is so much fun when Mommy and Daddy do all the work!



Bugga Boo would "help" us hike by kicking his feet and legs as we walked. It was adorable!!
