Moffat Tunnel Hike - Part 1 of 2

Nice shot, Babe!  We've seen some beautiful flowers on our hikes this summer.  It's been fun to teach the boys about the Colorado state flower: the lovely columbine.  They've been especially interested in the part about NOT being able to pick columbines. 

One of Brent's brilliant ideas this summer was letting the boys carry the Camel Bak.  Gavin had been marveling at the people carrying backpacks that appeared to be full of water!  The cutest moments on our hikes are when Gavin stands still long enough to let Gage drink from the hose on the Camel Bak. 

I love this picture!  What twins we had on the trail that day!  Gavin is often at his best when he's hiking in the mountains, much like his mama.

I think we took this one ourselves.  Not bad...

I'm so thankful that we hiked a bunch this summer as a family.  It was so fun to have Brent with us instead of working hard in grad school.  We're all really glad that he's done with his MBA!
