hiking silverfalls

Well on Saturday we had the opportunity of going on a hike with some friends. It was a really nice day and we had heard that the hike was easy and kids shouldn't have any trouble doing it. So we thought okay lets go. We went over to our friends house and we headed over to Silver Falls. On the way up I guess there was a bike race of sorts so we passed a fair amount of bikers. We got up there and we saddled up Hailey in this awesome baby backpack that Rustin let us borrow and Jason got her on his back and we headed up the stairs. It ended up being quite a hike up many stairs. Halfway up Zoe was done and Rustin was really nice and he packed Zoe on his shoulders she actually ended up sitting more or less on his backpack. But we made it up and back the kids fell asleep in the car on the way down and it was nice just a little warm but when we were by the falls it felt really nice.

Jason, Zoe, Kaleb, and Hailey by the waterfall. It was an awesome hike. But we did find out that one side was definitely a lot easier to do than the other. The one side went up fast and tons of stairs and the other more of a gradual climb and some stairs oh well live and learn. I do think it would be fun to attempt it again.
