The kids and I had a pretty good afternoon. I wanted to take the them hiking and ultimately decided on the John T Huston – Dr John D Brumbaugh Nature Center. It was about a 30 minute drive but it was pretty amazing. We’d never been there before and didn’t know what to expect.

My main goal was to get them some exercise and keep them distracted for a little while.

Our hike only lasted about 2 miles cause we were concerned about running out of daylight.

The kids did great and there was a lot of elevation change throughout the hike, so it was a bit more difficult than they’re used to. We had a lot of fun and everyone is exhausted. Sleep should be good tonight.

On the way home, we picked up some pizza and had a quiet evening. I’m feeling pretty good about today.

Everyone’s in bed and as far as I know, sleeping. Gavin totally freaked out at bedtime tonight and I’ll talk about that tomorrow.

Here’s a a quick slideshow of pictures from our adventure today.. ☺
