On Friday we went on a hike to Coal Creek Falls. Everyone seems to like it. Doug loved it. It was his first time doing it. He carried Kenzie pretty much the entire way. He was wondering how I did it myself. But when it's just me, she knows she has to walk. On the way there, Kenzie asked who was going to carry Coleman, and when I told her I would, she was really happy and said daddy could carry her :) After the park we went out to lunch. We went with Deveny's family and Joan to Kidd Valley at Coulon Beach. We were meeting at Coulon after so it was very convenient to eat there. I forgot that it was there until after we were done the hike. Then the kids played at the park for a little while, and we played some baseball, and played at the park a little more. After dinner we just hung out at the the house. Jordan and I went to his preschool graduation. Doug's Uncle Keith, Aunt Cindy, and cousins Darcy and Jeremy came over to see everyone that night too. When it got dark Doug pulled out his telescope and showed everyone who was interested Saturn. He said they were pretty impressed :)
My family.
My family again.
Darrin, Carson, Shawnee, Damon, Daisy in the front.
Brooklyn, Deveny, Preston, Mckay in the front.
Back: Candis, Ryan, Lincoln, Middle: X, Isaac, Anna, Front: Eva (Isaac kept making that face while everyone was taking pictures, until Doug pointed it out, then he laughed about it :))
I'm amazed at how well all the kids stood there and smiled, or at least looked, at the camera.
The boys running up ahead.
Deveny, Mckay, Brooklyn, Jordan's head.

At the falls. Jackson's trying to walk across the log. The water level was even lower than it was last time we were there.
Joan taking a picture. Some of the kids climbed above the water fall. You can kind of see one in a blue sweatshirt going up or down. I think you can kind of see the falls too. They're not very big :)
Anna, Lauren, Eva.
Jason, Doug, Deveny, Joan, Candis, Tyler, Darrin
Coleman. He loved throwing rocks into the tiny amount of water.
Grandma and her grandkids,

Kenzie.
Most of the kids.
Darrin climbed up on the rock and started dripping water on the kids. I think they were a little confused at first. Kenzie ran away pretty quickly.
We found lots of slugs and caterpillars on the trail. Everyone was pretty interested in them. I think slugs are pretty gross so I would have preferred to not see them :) We also saw a dead mole (or something) This is what everyone was looking at in the above picture.
The next pictures are from when we played baseball.
Jason pitching to Kenzie.
It was a fun busy day!
