T.T's Birthday Hike

Last Saturday we celebrated my sister's birthday by heading up to Auburn to hike and play at the river. The kids LOVE doing this. It was a beautiful day with huge puffy white clouds and the sun was shining. My favorite part about this day was watching Luke. He has been in a stage lately that we have discovered has to do with him being very shy. We wouldn't have guessed this a year ago, but we have a boy who loves being with daddy and mommy and gets very shy around others. I always say, he's getting in his shell. We have been working on helping him feel confident even when he wants to be shy. Anyways, the boy came out of his shell at the river. He was running, smiling, talking to people, asking to hike more, and just having a great time. It was so fun to watch him in an element where he felt super comfortable. Looks like we have a little outdoorsman on our hands. I love the picture of him sitting by the river, he looks so cute and I feel like he looks so happy and content.
It was so fun to get out with the whole family to enjoy the beautiful river and hiking trails. The kids could throw rocks in the river all day. Uncle Jesse helped them build a dam in the river, which caused some excitement and some intense working. Allie enjoyed throwing the rocks in the water and eating the snacks from the snack bag.
Happy Birthday T.T.....we love you!!!
