holiday hike

8 adults. 1 baby. 2 dogs. 2 waterfalls. 1 beautiful day. These are the ingredients of an excellent holiday hike.

Each month our home group tries to organize an outing or event. This month it was Glory who did the organizing and the event was a hike to Twin Falls in you'll never guess...Twin Falls State Park. Go figure, right?
It was Jackson's first hike and he managed pretty well seated comfortably in his ErgoBaby carrier. He only cried at the top of his lungs a few times, spending the majority of the hike catching Z's against my chest.

The hike was beautiful as we followed the trail through lush, moss-covered forest and moderate switch-backs to the Lower and Upper Twin Falls on the South Fork Snoqualmie River. Here is most of the crew on an open section of the trail.
