Last week, we hit the road with the dogs to visit Pyramid State Park. There are several small lakes here and about 16 miles of trails. We stayed on the main road though, b/c the trails were pretty thick and within minutes of getting on one, we were being swarmed by five pound mosquitoes - Ugh, I hate those little b*st*rds. But, we did really have a great time walking around and seeing lots of beauty.
On the way home, we took some back roads, the dogs got to run around in a soybean field when one of said back roads ran out of road and we got chased by a super fast dog...all in all, a fun trip.
Hitting the trail. Even though it was a short visit, this are his first official steps on a hiking trail. Very exciting :)
Star was a swimming maniac. She jumped and went totally under from the dock that we were on and came up looking like she had no idea how that could have happened.
Mom, do you need to leash our wild dogs? Nah...I didn't see another person out there!
There were TONS of beautiful butterflies out there. One of Luke's favorite books right now is The Very Hungry Caterpillar so I took some time to explain that the butterflies were like the one in his book. Maybe he understood a little of what I was talking about?
I grew up around cornfields so I was pretty excited to find a photo/adventure opportunity at one of the picnic areas in the park. Luke was pretty into hiding behind the corn and walking through the rows. I adore these pictures of him.
The vicious and FAST dog that chased us down the road that turned out to be a dead end...that meant we got to be chased twice. Oh, the fun!
