Hiking and Exploring the Mountains and Lake

We went on a really neat long hike up the mountain as a group. The view was beautiful and Andy definitely got his workout carrying Sophie most the way.
One morning Maddie and I went up a trail together and did some exploring. We got of the trail for a minute to cross the creek and as Maddie is pushing through the trees behind me she said, "now this is some really hiking!" The kids also loved throwing things in the creek and walking along the banks following it.

Sophie's favorite thing to do was find flowers to pick-

Sophie's new favorite face to pull during pictures. You will see this repeated a lot through all these Louis Lake pictures-
