Real Adults Play

I hope you have had a great weekend.  Mine has been spent with some of my favorite people while playing outdoors.  The weather has been in the 60s and quite sunny and it was a perfect weekend to hit the trails and climb some hills with my boys. Walking or hiking is one of my favorite forms of exercise because unlike being on a treadmill, there is a purpose and end result to the workout and when the scenery is so beautiful, it's so worth it.

I'm pretty much convinced that the reason we get old is because we stop playing and I can't let that happen. 

We roamed through open space and saw some old farm houses.

Some of us drank water from the little river while others observed.

We totally ran into this bad boy while he was grazing.  I'm not gonna lie- I ran and almost peed my pants a little bit.  Scary bull- no you can't eat our furry child.
 

We discovered our new hiking buddy likes the water almost as much as he likes disturbing the wildlife.

We found our way through new trails and practiced our balance skillz.

We climbed hills and looked out on beautiful views.

Finally, we came home for frozen yogurt, hugs, and baths.  All in that order.
