Lair o'the Bear

Today we went to one of our fave hiking spots with our best hiking buddies.  Lair o'the Bear is beautiful, fairly shady, and flat so that was good for Nicole, being super pregnant, and for me carrying Nicholas in the backpack. Though he did get down and do some walking :).

We took a new route for us today, that Nicole and Emily had done before that followed the water and had an awesome climbing tree!  I got some nice pics on the camera that I will post soon, but here are a few off my phone.  

Everyone needs a BFF/hiking buddy!  

This one is going to give me a heart attack...no fear as he climbs right up after the big kids!
