Red Rocks Trip

We had a really nice day hiking out at Red Rocks Canyon last weekend. The boys both did really well. Trev's main struggle was having to wear shoes that aren't his new cowboy boots. Ryan's only complaint was when he had to be packed for a while when we were walking on an area with a drop off. So it was a very happy family adventure day.


Trev remembered and found his 'chair rock again'

Ryan loved climbing on the rocks. Coming out of the canyon he kept trying to veer off the sides to climb up the hills. So for a while, every ten feet or so he'd stop, turn and point up the steep incline and say "this way?"


Awww... they're so cute when they hold hands


The boys observing fluid dynamics


Ryan was pretty excited here-- he kept popping up from behind the bushes to roar or say boo! Then giggle hysterically and do it again.

I didn't quite think of taking a video soon enough-- so this is just the end of Ryan's roar fest. I thought the background and subject matter gave it a very B-movie feeling
