Hiking in the Rain

So we went on a hike today. We were all so excited to get outside. It has been raining and even hailing here all week! When we woke up there was sunshine outside and after a yummy breakfast we decided to get our butts outside and enjoy the sun!
We got ready pretty fast and got out the door. But by the time we got in the car we could see the rain clouds starting to roll in... we decided to just go for it anyway and have fun no matter what the weather was going to do! We threw in some sweatshirts and hit to road!
By the time we got there it was sprinkling and we could see the storm clouds coming towards the mountain! But it was such a pretty spot and we were all excited so we decided to just make the best of it and hike a long for as long as we could!
Its amazing how much fun you can have if you just have a positive attitude and go with it! I have been amazed at how happy we have all been this last year! We have had so many stressers! But instead of focusing on them and how awful it all is we have stuck together and just had fun together!

After the rain started to really come down we ate our sandwiches in the car and went for an amazing drive up the canyon!

Its such a good lesson to me to just enjoy the small good things around you or you will miss out on so much happiness!

I can't believe how big the boys are! We haven't seen you in so long. Great job on the attitude...we could all learn a lot from you.
