Every Sunday I take the boys over to our local dog park for some socializing and rough housing. They love it, and I love that they sleep the rest of the day!!! This Sunday however, I decided I wanted to do something for me AND them. So, I drove them up to a trail I used to run in Boulder and we hiked for awhile. I was a bit nervous because I had never taken them hiking before and was unsure if they would make it to the top or how they would react.
It was a bit jerky (too much excitement), but overall successful. I think they really had a great time and I always enjoy getting to go to the mountains. Next weekend I will see if they can handle something a bit longer because today was only about two miles (I didn't want to get halfway up a trail and have them give up...I'm not backpacking them out)! This is a great beginning to the day and I am hoping for many more like this with the boys before hiking season is over.
