Hiking Adventure 6/4/12

 All ready to head out, but I'm definitely thinking the stroller is going to be trouble on the stones.


 Brady was SO excited to get to the woods!


 It was partly cloudy but when the sun peaked out it was beautiful


 Deer siting #1, this one was really close.  Brady was VERY excited about seeing his first deer ever!


 Very pretty......


 but prickly purple flowers.


 Brady liked this green looking flower/plant, it was cascading.


 Deer siting #2, if we stood still they just watched us.


 Then we found a little creek





 And of course we wanted to throw some rocks. Gave one to Tyler but it ended up in his mouth, don't worry I successful extracted it before he swallowed.


 My best attempt at a picture, not bad especially since both boys are looking!


 Deer siting #3, so beautiful, I would've been happy to see a dozen.


 We found a tree bark almost as big as Brady.


 Photo shoot with these cool rocks into the woods (Brady's idea).


 Oh Boy, I tried!!!  At least it tells you a lot about there personalities, Tyler's planning his escape and Brady's being his theatrical self.


And his victorious pose with his sticks that just had to come home.

This hiking trail has many routes and we only went on one that was approximately 1 mile and Brady walked the entire way (not to mention that Lancaster County has many other Trails).  By the time we got back to the car Brady was asking to come back.  Finding another activity that we can do to keep us active and busy for the summer is a SUCCESS!!!!
