Some friends of ours told us about a nice family friendly hike called Leigh Lake in the Grand Teton National Park. We decided Saturday would be a perfect time to go check it out.
We loaded everybody's backpacks with the essentials for a hike and off we went. It was beautiful!
I'm so glad we have trained these girls to love the outdoors. They always say they don't really want to go but as soon as we are out the door they have such a great time.
When we got to a stopping point at the end of the lake the girls took off their shoes and went for the water. They had a good time playing for a while on the bank of the lake.
Alissa is shrugging her shoulders because she just dipped her whole arm into the water and now her sweatshirt is wet.
Aparently without thinking Molly, Ella and Lincoln all just went for the water before taking off their shoes so we had to come up with an idea to help them hike back to the car. I put their socks on and found some Ziploc baggies we didn't need and put them inside their shoes. We have had this experience before so thankfully soaking wet shoes didn't ruin the trip. In fact neither did these mass amount of bugs all along the bank.
They were a little cold after getting out of the freezing water so we found some sweatshirts for them all and a chocolate bar and everybody was happy.
The scenery all throughout the park is amazing!
Sure love these babies of ours who make everything so much more fun!
And for the beauty of the earth that God so creatively made.
For fun we stopped and took our picture by these state signs as a new tradition for the kids.
And mostly at the request of this little one.
Happy Memorial Day!
