...last family outing before school starts!

Finally Jared just took a day off... so Friday we headed to Sequoia Nat'l park!
taking a picture while waiting at the road construction stop.
1st stop once we got there.... picnic lunch! Jace and his Big BABY! he takes it everywhere!
the kids made a teeter totter
awwwe how cute is that... Jace, sharing Cheetos with daddy!!
At the top of Morro rock!
wow it's our whole family!




Hiking down is scarier than the hike up... at least for Easton, he thought for sure Kyler was going to fall off the side, since he kept running down the steps... glad at least one of my sons is getting some sense scared into him!

Everyone had gathered around a big ugly spider.... well Jace just went right up and picked it up... can't really see it in the picture, everyone was screaming "ewwwww!!!!"
Jared had really bad allergies, so he stayed behind with Jace and our "teenager" Brianne, While I took the boys on little hike around the giant trees meadow...





another picture mom... chee....seeeeeeee.....
best friend brothers Kyler and Easton on top of a fallen tree
After visiting Hospital rock... there's Morro Rock in the back ground, that we hiked earlier...
Morro Rock... close up
everyone saying the Junior Ranger pledge... this was a really nice park ranger, that let each of the kids take turns wearing the ranger hat...


he even gave them high-fives!
too bad Jared didn't get to enjoy his day off in the mountains because of yucky allergies... but the kids had fun earning another Junior Ranger badge and playing in the dirt... looking for bugs, and hiking, it was a nice get away for the day!
