Happy Fourth of July! As this long weekend rolls on we took a family hike up Bald Mountain in Weld. We didn't get a chance to do this hike last summer and it ended up being way easier then we remembered it from two years ago. Probably because Ben could hike it himself, so we are FINALLY down to carrying only ONE!!! It was just about 3 miles round trip, straight up, but totally worth it for the gorgeous views at the top. The kids spent much of the hike naming different landmarks on the way up, then trying to find them again on the way down. Examples include: Moon meteor rock (a huge split rock with a tree growing out of/around it), the potato chip rock, and many more.
Farmington had their July 4th fireworks on the 3rd this year. For the first time, we got all 4 kids to stay up late enough (and be fairly pleasant) to watch the fireworks for the Fourth of July. The parade in Farmington happened on the 4th and it was HOT! We spent the morning collecting candy at the parade and the afternoon on the lake. It was the perfect way to wrap up the weekend:)
