Donut Falls

Dad and I went on this hike a couple of years ago but the kids have been wanting to go. So, one Saturday (or maybe it was a Friday night...I just can't remember!) we decided to do it.  #2 Boy told us that he wasn't too excited about going "unless cousins can come."  Luckily, Sister's family was up for the adventure and we headed out.  It was good get hiking again.  Everyone seemed to enjoy it.  I hung in the back most of the time with #6 Boy.  #6 Boy hiked basically the whole thing except for a few steps after falling on his face...he is a good hiker but always at the back of the pack.

Hiking along

I was about this far back most of the time...but I hear the kids had a good time too.
