Hiking Adventures

I've never been a big hiker before, but I really enjoyed doing some hikes with friends this spring. There's something about exercising outside with good company and beautiful scenery...and I already miss it and can't wait for the winter. 

This was a five mile hike with my friend Tiffany.



A few days after, a few of my friends and I took all of our kids on an easy hike. We didn't get very far, but they all had fun.
Henry and Fox always hold hands and I think it's so sweet. 


Of course my kid had to be the odd one out...haha. I kinda love it that he always does his own thing. 




Finn is NOT a great hiker (or walker), which is why I mostly hike without kids, since I don't have a hiking carrier.


Look at these sweet friends!

One evening after Katie picked up the boys, I decided to do something I had never done before: Go on a hike by myself. I think I was mostly procrastinating having to do my english homework, but hey...it was a great time!


I made it to the top by sunset, but it unfortunately got dark on me way too quickly and I was pretty scared hiking down by myself in the pitch dark. Never again.
I love Arizona!

July iPhone dump

The rest of our July in pictures! Movie date with the boys! I took Finn and his best friend to the Aquarium one day, while Fox was at the allergist with Katie. They both had a blast. Trying to touch the sting rays... Sweet brotherly moment at a play place. One of my patients made this for me, and it made my day. It's now hanging from the mirror in my car, as a reminder how fragile life is. This kid kills me with his watermelons. He always wants to buy them, so he can help me cut them, but then won't eat them. When I pointed this out to him, he simply replied that I could take the watermelon to my co-workers again because they love it when I do.  Fox told me he is allergic to Goodwill and puts on this big act whenever I make them go. His throat starts to be itchy and he can't breathe. We might have to get him tested again...hahaha. We visited a lot of play places this summer to stay out of the heat. This was at a library and the kids played with this lite-brite forever. Finn...

August iPhone dump

Some moments from my August... Coffee treats during busy shifts! Fox had a pool playdate with some friends. First day of middle school! Unfortunately I had to work and couldn't send him off that day, but my favorite co-parent came through with some pictures from the bus stop. Found a bunch of these selfies on my phone haha. On the way to school one morning, middle school is rough apparently. A quick brunch with friends to celebrate the end of summer break! My sweet friend Nikki gave me this bucket full of beautiful dresses that she had outgrown. A lot of them still had tags on them! Dinner date with the boys, they preferred playing a game together instead of talking to me...haha! Homework struggles have begun again! Sweet treats after school while we wait for Finn to get off the bus. Unfortunately their buses arrive an hour apart from each other, so we have a lot of waiting around because the bus stop is too far from my house.  He was helping me make schnitzel! We watched Bad guys ...
