One of the perks of living in a “smallish” town….cute family activities, that are NOT overly crowded! PG holds a Family Day Hike in June that has fun activities for the kids and a free breakfast. Not to mention, if you RSVP for the breakfast in advance, you automatically win prizes. (I like when I know I will win something!) Totally worth getting my family out the door by 8:30am on a Saturday.
After the breakfast we headed up the trail to the waterfall in Battlecreek Canyon. Yep, I’ve heard about this waterfall since we moved here, but had never ventured up that canyon. It was a pretty decent waterfall and the walk wasn’t bad at all. Garrick was able to do the whole thing himself.
We met up with our friends Robert and Julie, (Rob and Dan are friends from high school, and now they carpool to work because their companies are in the same building) and all our kids had a blast running up the trail together. They all wanted to be the first to see what the next activity was.
Launching waterballs into targets for one of the activities they had along the trail. Haden was the only one in our group who actually hit the target.
Check out the people rappelling behind them. Looks like a blast. Connor loved how close he could get to the waterfall.
A very successful morning! The boys were disappointed that we weren’t going to hike to the “G”, but were more than satisfied when they saw the waterfall. It would be fun to go up later in the day, when it is warmer and cool off in the water. I’m wondering how busy it is during the summer?
One of the few family shots we have had recently. Yep, Alicia is officially 32 weeks pregnant with boy #4. (for those who didn’t know the gender)
We will definitely be signing up to do it again next year. Oh, and a reporter from the Daily Herald interviewed us…so now I’m going to actually have to check and see if we made it into the papers!
