The Great Outdoors ... part 1 ...

Avery investigating all the new wonders in the wilderness


A few weeks ago, we packed up the car, headed North for the highway, and said "Goodbye, big city lights ... hello, starry nights!!!" One of my best of best friends invited us all up to their cabin in the wilderness for the weekend ... how could one refuse such a great getaway from the blasting summertime heat rays.

There was oh so much fun stuff to see and do ...


Avery having fun in her own peanut-sized chair ...



... and having even more fun in the hammock with Mommy ...



... and just a ton of fun playing with Noah ...


... and even getting to sit up close at the table and eat a country cooked breakfast


Fun baby feeding time with Mathew, Noah, Avery, and their Mommies



Although hanging, playing, and exploring around the cabin was way fun, the best time was had by all during the big hiking adventure. This was not a hike for the tame hearted ... only the few and brave would make it back from this dangerous excursion ...


Beginning of the hike ...



... the views were really grand looking over the scenery we had just traveled ...




... Mommy needed a break, so Daddy took over "resting" on my chariot as we continued upward


Boy o' boy, that hike was so demanding that I barely remember it much at all ...


Why Avery doesn't remember much from the strenuous hike ...


Watch for Part 2 of Avery's wilderness adventure ... coming soon ...
