A Saturday Hike

A few weeks ago we wanted to get out of the slug and see the sun. We drove up the canyon and went for a little muddy snow hike. TJ is such a mountain goat. I was huffing and puffing trying to keep up with him. He trudged up the mountain with Toby on his shoulders like it was no big deal. It was a short hike... due to me, not him!
We played in snow for a while over by some train tracks. We were waiting for the train to come by us.After a while of waiting, we started to get cold. We got back in the runner and started to head back down the mountain when we saw the train coming. We flipped around and caught it just in time. It was neat to watch the train go whizzing past us. I almost didn't get my camera out fast enough.
I told TJ I'll whip myself into shape so for out next hike I'll take the lead. Haha I'm pretty sure that will never happen!

These are fun photos! Your little girl is the cutest thing.

I would have been huffing and puffing too. Sometimes I say I have asthma because I can't run or hike or do anything athletic, but I really don't. :)

Saw Jamie on Friday. I adore her. We should all get together sometime. Maybe a triple date with you, TJ, David and I, and Jamie and you know who!!!!
