Yeah for summer! We started taking advantage of the nice weather and Mike not having homework by going on hikes! We were given this awesome child carrier to "easily" take Carter with us. (Easy for Christina and Carter anyway.) Carter love being outside and he loved riding on Mike's back. Our first hike was just a very short one up to a waterfall in Sandy, but it felt good to get out and the water was amazing!
Carter just recently started making this new noise that just cracks us up. We got him to do it on the hike.
Our second hike up Bell Canyon was a little steeper and longer, but so worth it because it was so beautiful! These pictures are pretty good, but sadly you can never capture the true beauty of everything.
It was the perfect time to hike because it wasn't too hot or cold, there was green everywhere, and there were very few bugs out so it made for a wonderful time!
Carter looks so mad in this first picture because a few moments later he was out! It's a tough job hiking! :-)
He stayed asleep for quite awhile until we came back to the rushing river. Then he was awake and ready to eat some power snacks...chips! Yum!
We love living in such a beautiful state with easy access to such amazing outdoors. We also love bringing Carter with us on our adventures. One of our favorite parts though is always heading home because the views with the sunsets are just breathtaking.

Those are great hikes! We haven't made it to them this year but we enjoyed both of those hikes several times last year. This year we're exploring the White Pine trail (on Friday we made it farther than the two times we went last summer) and of course, we will DEFINITELY be going to Cecret Lake. If you haven't done that one--DO! It's gorgeous. Call us if you ever want hiking buddies. (We could have taken that family picture for you!) You took gorgeous photos on your two hikes. What kind of camera do you use?
