End of Summer fun

Our BIG family "hike" and picnic in the Poudre Canyon
After the hour long drive to even get to the edge of the mountains (foothills,really!) we decided to stop at the first picnic spot we found, which happened to be only about a mile into the canyon! It turned out to be just the right amount of mountain exposure that our little kiddos needed!

Will loved "hiking" along the river and throwing rocks into the water.

Mommy and Will and Will's ALL time favorite lunch item: PB&J

Any guesses as to what Will's head dress is made out of?? A hint is in the background of the picture below!
This is a delicious dinner that Daddy and Will made all by themselves!! woohoo!
Our little cowboy is always on the lookout for bad guys or bears in our backyard-both of which are in high supply.


Here the girls had their first taste of rice cereal
Madeline took to it right away
And Sophie preferred smiling for the camera

Will insisted that I tie up his hair with his towel "just like Mommy's"
