Hiking Silver Falls

Yesterday we spent the day at Silver Falls, hiking with Kyle's folks. We love to go hiking at Silver Falls and it had been about a year since we were there last. We did a five mile loop, checking out many falls along the way and watching Allie in amazement at the water. We were able to get up close to Double Falls, so she could feel the mist from the water. She loved it. She even managed to walk most of the way, then use daddyh's shoulders for quick breaks. I was really impressed she could keep up for that long with those little legs. Shannon enjoyed the ride on mom's back, though I know as soon as she is walking (which wont be long), she wont like riding the whole way!
Allie has her own camelpack so she can carry her own water. she loves it and looks so darn cute.
