We headed up to the mountains after my sibs hit the road. It was a beautiful day and we were excited to spend it in the great outdoors with more family!
 |
| Hendrix LOVES wearing blankets on his head. He was getting sleepy in the car ride up and tucked himself in.... |
 |
| Helping sister |
Hendrix actually made contact with the ball a few times! He takes after his dad, thank goodness!
Love my little family!!
 |
| We hiked up a really steep ridge. Stella and Olive did a great job keeping up with us! When them came over the ridge they were holding hands :) |
Dylan would walk under branches and Hendrix was laughing so hard. He loved it!
We found a bunch of turkey feathers then found some empty shells!
 |
| Found a TON of coral mushrooms! We brought a bag to put the mushrooms in, but Dylan had used it to collect pitch....so my long sleeves got sacrificed to be a carrier. Very delicious!! |
 |
| We drove out a different way then we drove in and surrounding area was being logged. Made for a bumpy ride, but was pretty cool to see the tall piles of trees! |
We spied a Momma Bear! She ran towards us then scurried up this tree, just 15 feet from our car. She was just checking us out, hanging out. We the spied a little cub a few trees back, waaaay up. We watched his cute little buns scurry down those trees and meet up with his mom. They started to saunter off when a second little bear scurried down a neighboring tree and ran to catch up. They just took their time wandering around and looking at us then climbed up a hill. I love bears and I've always wanted to see one in the wild (Dylan ALWAYS teases me...."oh look, a bear!" and even though he is joking EVERY time I always look, because I'm not willing to miss the opportunity...) It was such a neat experience especially to be so close to them!

| Our cousins found a bucket load of morel mushrooms! |
