On A Beautiful Fall Morning

Today's weather is nothing short of dismal... But LAST Saturday we were over in the Tri-Cities, and enjoyed a picture perfect example of what a Fall Morning should be like!

We were staying with Danee's grandparents (Wayne & Ginger) who live right across the street from the Badger Mountain trailhead, so what better way to enjoy the morning than to hit the trail?

We weren't sure how Danee would handle a mountain hike, but we had a brilliant backup plan...



She was so excited to see the little blue wagon, she jumped right in, and before you know it, we were on our way!



Mommy pulled her for the first couple minutes, but then it was Daddy's turn.



Before long, Danee was showing signs that maybe the wagon wasn't the MOST comfortable place she's ever been...











After that last position, she started dragging her fingers on the wheels, so we let her out, and she had a great time being a big girl, walking with Grandpa Wayne.





Yep, walking was DEFINITELY more enjoyable than the wagon!



Then it was Grandma Ginger's turn to receive Danee's help...



Danee did an EXCELLENT job of helping to walk the doggies.



Then she decided she wanted to blaze her own trail, while eating her apple.



But then all that walking started taking its toll on her tiny little legs, so it was time to be carried.



So all of us took turns carrying her down the mountain and back home!

All in all, we made it about half way up the mountain, and I'd gladly do it again, rather than being cooped up in the house on this miserable drizzly Saturday!
