Our summer will not ever be complete without visits to and from our cousins.
They have totally stolen our hearts and every moment spent with them is a total blast!
We were lucky enough to have them in our neck of the woods for a weekend... the weekend before heading to our River Rafting trip together!
When you have out of town company what do you do? Take them on a hike of course!
Murhutt was our trail of choice!
Our new favorite Ben-Sitter!
Needing piggy backs already.... uh oh!
My little explorer buddy!
And his best explorer buddy!
Seriously you need to be carried... COME ON MAN!
A hikin we will go, A hikin we will go...
"No seriously, you have to eat these, it's a right of passage"
Yep you're a cutie!
Some extremely intense exploring
BERRIES!
So fun to share some girly time, laughs, and stories with this amazing woman!
Some people look totally thrilled by this excursion, right? haha
Of course we couldn't just admire the falls from the suggested look out...
Nope danger is our middle name!
Gymnastics does her good!
LOVE
I'm really closing my eyes here and taking pictures...
I'm feeling the sudden urge to throw up a little...
These excursions are not healthy for my anxiety!
I Seeee you!
Cash busy cleanin his dirty feet...
Think he might have forgotten he still has to walk back in those sandals!
"Mom grab my safety stick"
Bahaha!!!
The hike was a blast, munchin on huckleberries, letting the girls run off with my camera, backbreaking 3 year old holding, and a beautiful waterfall. After finishing our hike we jetted off to a little farm up the road from our house to pick raspberries.
Fushias are soooo beautiful!
And who knew there were so many varieties
Thanks to the girls again for capturing some more great shots!
I've never seen such monster raspberries!
The strategic picker...
saw that...
Dustin's ready for some grubbing Mexican Food... I can tell!
An amazing tiny frog!
OHHH caught you both! Put them in the bucket!!!
What? You didn't see nothing Mom!
There's something so charming about this one....
A girl and her toad
"Hug me"
Gobble Gobble
We dropped our berries at home and headed to our local margarita Mexican joint. And devoured some amazing food and beverages...
Like bacon wrapped jalapeƱos and grilled shrimp, oh my stars it was sooooo good!
Put kiddos to bed and played card games until the weee hours of the night...
The next morning there was an epic battle, dads vs. kids!
It was nuts!
Next off to Finnriver for fire roasted pizza and cider tasting...
Pizza was amazing! Live music not too bad either!
Boys were right at home
Sooo you want the penguin?
(sorry inside joke!!)
Hey where's our cider?
love that guy...just sayin
Happy Cider guy!
A random cool bug
We had no idea ahead of time... but U-pick blueberries were happenin too!
Beast Berries as we call them...
Hey get to pickin!
Can I eat this one?
An unbelievably wonderful weekend with family...
A weekend I can't wait to repeat real soon!
