It kind of amazes me how the kids woke up super exicted to go hiking every morning at the yurt and then we got oh all of about 10 feet on a hike and suddenly everyone was tired/hungry/etc etc…. Not quite sure how that works. Actually though we had a great time hiking, even if…

Yurt Camping 2018
We got away from everything last week and went yurt camping. I decided I really like yurts. It’s kind of like a tent only in the morning when its cold there is a wood stove that you can start (or in my case Clint can climb out of his warm sleeping bag and start while…
Family Hike….
So this is a little out of order but it’s because we spent last weekend at Korea Heritage Adoption camp and many of my photos from that are on my camera which I haven’t downloaded yet, so as a result I’m jumping ahead to our after camp hike and the photos I have of that…
Happy 13th Hike
So I’m a little behind on my blog but on June 11th Clint and I celebrated 13 years of marriage! In true form we decided on going on a 10 mile hike because that’s what we do. The kids stayed the night before with my parents and we were out the door before 6AM to…
Hiking…Party of 7
We went on our first family hike with all 7 of us last week. The weather was not that typical of August in Colorado, but I didn’t mind the cooler air and even the rain that we got along the way. We didn’t know if we would only make it 100 feet from the car…
Chasm Running….
Last Friday Clint and I went for a good trail run/altitude training/time without kiddos/refreshing moment up to Chasm Lake at the base of Longs Peak. It was all in one. And much needed. It was nearly 3000 feet in altitude gain in the 4.3 miles up, but we had a gorgeous day and got an…
Final Days As A Family Of 5…
This past Saturday we made it a family day. It’s the last time it will just be just the 5 of us. We decided to spend the afternoon hiking one of the trails close to our house. We have hiked this one a number of times, it is a little over 3 miles round trip…
On Riding Busses and Climbing (Icy) Mountains….
Today was our one free day. And what an adventure we had. The day started early for me thanks to the time change…I was wide awake from about 3AM on. Clint finally woke at 5:30….man we know how to sleep in on vacation. We started our day with FaceTiming with the boys. It was good…
Putting The Hiking Back Into HikingMommy…
I love to hike. I always have. Sometimes the opportunity to actually go hiking isn’t as available as I would like. Even if I only live a short drive from the mountains. However I’m working at putting the hiking back in my life. Being a mom of little ones I’m realizing my hiking 10-12 miles…
Yellowstone Day #5 (finally)
And so here we are more than 6 months after our actual trip and I am finally getting around to blogging about Day #5…oh well, at least I’m getting it done. We had a general plan on what we wanted to see that day but since we knew it was going to be our last…
