Battle Creek Falls

Thursday morning, my two brothers, Erik and Karl and their families and me and my children meet at the trailhead of Battle Creek Falls and hiked to the Falls. It was a fun time together although the hike was rated easy, it was not so easy for me. It was steep at places and we were really close to the water which was running fast and furious. I am glad that we kept all the kids safe. Ammon wanted me to carry him but we encouraged him to walk. I could barely carry myself, I couldn't carry him! He was so tired when we got home! So we made it to the Falls and then we sat and enjoyed the noise of the crashing Falls and had a snack of fruit snacks, granola bars, goldfish and bottled water. It was good for the cousins to be together and make memories. We have so enjoyed having Erik and Stephanie and their kids here this month. It is hard to believe that the month is over and they are their way to Erik's new posting in Oklahoma.  The kids want to go back to Battle Creek Falls for a FHE sometime. They want to share it with their dad since he had to work when we went so perhaps we will go back soon.
