Twin Lakes - With the Kids!

Last Friday we went on an overnight backpacking trip and brought Aaron and Charlotte. Ali and Christian came along too as well as Jordan, Stephanie and their girls.

The hike up was a little bit harder than I remembered, but the kids all did great! They were all complaining at the end, but when we got to our destination and set up camp they all agreed it was worth it!
We got up there right before the sunset so we were rushed to get everything set up and the camera didn't come back out until the next morning. We roasted hot dogs and marshmallows for dinner over the fire and they went to sleep pretty quickly. We were all very tired!

Right before hiking out we stopped at the Lake so swim for a bit.

It was a nice, quick trip that I would like to do once a year with our family while they are young.

Your kids have the coolest life! Maybe it's their parents...
