Wallace Falls!
I love this hike. Olivia wanted to go hiking for her birthday today, and it was the perfect day for a hike. The great thing about this hike is that it's so dense with Washington foilage that I don't have to lather up 8 arms, 8 legs and 4 faces with sunscreen! Whoo-hoo! But, really-it's a gorgeous place, and I'm hoping these pics entice people to come visit us in Washington! Come on--you know you wanna!
I love the mossy trees. It's so not what I'm used to-being from Idaho desert. The spongy beauty gets me every time.

Crazy Kids. Anyone want to take a shot at guessing how come my kids are so weird???
AIEE didn't think so...
At one point, Emily fell behind. When I looked back, she was like this. She popped her head up for a second and said, "I need to pray." ????
Me with Kevin in the backpack. I think he liked it. He fell asleep at the end...
Great quote. Just ignore the graffiti on the side
So, it was a great day. All that was missing was our manly man, missing in action as he works hard to wrap up work before a long-needed break next week.
And aside from several all-natural potty breaks and Sam calling a fellow hiker a "booger king", it was pretty uneventful as far as patience-trying-events go.
Oh-and it took my lame self like an hour to upload and arrange all these pictures!!!! So, I hope all you peoples love looking at them, because uh...things might be more sparse in the future.
