Family Fun Hike

my brother has been planning to move to arkansas for over a year so when he actually said he was moving out, we wanted to have one last family fun activity before saying our 'see-you-soons'. hike. a family hike. sounds like fun right?! we found a trail on south mountain that we wanted to try out.

here is the group before getting started. nice view of the city!

ariana had to show off her muscles....and legs with those short shorts!
crazy uncle with his crazy nieces.

the clouds were awesome!

the hike was fun and had lots of fun rock formations that made for great photo breaks.

getting ready for our lunch break.

and it was just about then when we felt the first signs of rain so it was also our turn around point.

it made alexis work up quite a thirst...

while it wore sweet ellie right to sleep but...

we all enjoyed our time with christopher this morning!
