Family Hike to Twin Lakes!

Yesterday we decided to go on a hike up in the Jewell Basin, which is about a 45 min. drive to the base. There are so many different hikes you can take from there. We chose a 5 mile round trip for our crew. Our destination was the Twin Lakes. The boys did great and even Eli made it about 4 miles by himself. So fun to hike with our boys and enjoy the beautiful country we live in!
Beginning of our trek!

Check out the drop down the mountain!


We found the lakes! There really were twin lakes, just got one of them in the pic!

Eli doing a mischievious kungfu move!

Yes the trail made me a little nervous in some spots, but the boys did awesome!

We had to stop and let the boys be "rock climbers"

Pretty mountain landscape!

Bjorn doing some type of a superhero pose!

We stopped to pic some huckleberries on the way down! Eli doesn't have very many huckleberries in his bag, too many in his tummy! Super fun day with our boys!!!

What fun! Cute pictures of your boys and that is a beautiful place to hike. I like your haircut- it makes me tempted to do the same! And, Eric is Mr. Clean- was this a bet or dare? Don't burn your head Eric! Love all the new pix.
