Hiking





Eric's family invited us to hike Mt Timpanogos with them and so we decided to prepare by going on other hikes. Here we are at Donut Falls... it's only a couple miles total, but it was fun to get used to hiking again. Otto was really good in our front carrier - he just fell asleep and enjoyed the ride.




That was the only hike we did in preparation for the big hike. Probably should have done more, but we
survived. Here we are on our way up Mt Timp on Sept. 5th. We met up with BriAnn and Derek (on their way down). We ended up leaving late that morning,
which made it so we missed Eric's family on the way up, but we also missed the rain (that
was our plan all along). We enjoyed the hike - the exercise, the beauty, and the fresh air were great for us! It was a fun hike; we went just over halfway, but I was very sore for a couple of days and Otto's schedule was thrown off for a while. He was a champ, though, along the way. He's finally sleeping through the night again - yay! (Sorry for the poor picture quality - it was pretty misty from the morning rain.)
We've resolved to make it to the top next year with Otto!
