Reppin' the Y

Hike to the  Y

REPPIN' THE  Y

All the waaaaaaay!


     One Saturday morning Eric and I woke up and thought "let's hike the Y this morning!" so we did just that! Our kids are really good sports when it comes to activities, especially when it comes to hiking! I mean, just a couple months ago we hiked 12 miles and not a tear! This hike was a little different... Kelson didn't want to go hiking in the first place and that set him in a mood.Chloe got uncomfortable in the backpack Eric was carrying her in so we ended up taking turns carrying her up and down the mountain!  We made it all the way to the top in just over an hour! At the top we took a moment to look at the valley and eat our packed lunch!


Please, enjoy Kelson's creepy face! Hey, at least he isn't shoving the 'cool' peace sign in there! LOL



View from the tippy top of the top!





Look at her lovely cotton candy hair!

Yes, Eric did indeed shave his head. If your interested in the "why" story, just ask him.
It will make you laugh.


The boys wanted a break on the way down and they climbed these rocks!






Cascade Springs

CASCADE SPRINGS

ALPINE LOOP

PROVO CANYON     

     Cascade Springs is up Provo Canyon and along the Alpine Loop! It is gorgeous up there, especially with fall approaching. It is a natural spring that flows down into streams and waterfalls! They've made boardwalks and have paved trails to "hike" around it all. I put the hike in quotations because it isn't really a hike. We took Chloe in a stroller and pushed her along the path just fine. There are some stairs, but Eric and I just lifted her over those. The last time we had been up here was five years ago for family pictures with my mom. It was nice to go back and enjoy it all, not worry or think about pictures. These few pictures I snapped were on our way out. I still love taking pictures, but I'm finding myself enjoying the moment and less viewing through the lens. LOL

This is the spring! Just above here is where it comes out of the mountain!

What are these things?


Two boys and an adventure!




This is looking into the water where the 'water fall' hits the pond... I like the bubbles and wanted a picture of them.
Plus, it's soooo clear!

Don't mind the peeps ruining my professional picture lol


Headed out to go home. . .


Similar look to the River Trail in Provo, eh?

Parking lot, but those mountains and their colors!

Bathrooms that were closed due to no water, but to the left was an over used hole in the ground!
It was really pretty all in all.

Where did he learn this peace sign? He does it ever picture now. . .
Hi Jay and your cute goofy face!
