The kids had been waiting months for horseback riding, fishing and 4 wheelers. They weren't disappointed. We only wished that we could have stayed a few more days.

Minus a few babies and moms, the family decided to hike Hickman Bridge. It was a little longer than everyone realized, but even the little kids were troopers. I think the gummy bears and M&Ms handed out by Aunt Charlene were a big help.

After the hike we all met up to have lunch at the Sunglow. I have been eating at this restaurant my whole life. Although the menu has changed over the years, they still serve their famous Pickle and Pinto Bean Pies.

What an amazing Summer! These Summer's that are home leaves are definitely special and you will remember them forever. It is amazing that is doesn't matter how many weeks you come over for, it is never enough. Miss you guys, we are thinking of you and hope you have a great year! I think I want to come visit when you move back to CA--looks like you all have some very fun places to go!
