Rainy Hike

Yesterday was Tuesday so it was family day. On the way to Mom’s place, my brother picked up Starbucks for us. He is so sweet. We had a great morning and then we all went to a late breakfast including my other brother. We had a blast again. Laughing up a storm, enjoying delicious food and wonderful company.

My brother and I have been wanting to go hiking, but always had an excuse. Well it was raining yesterday but we decided to go hiking anyways. We got up to the spot and it was raining, but not crazy. One plant in particular was covered in individual rain drops. It was amazing! We got a bit of the ways into the hike and it started to down pour. The heavy wind made the rain shoot at us sideways. We laughed, but we turned around and headed back to the truck. Since we turned around, now our whole bodies were soaked. Our jeans were heavy with all the water, so that added more of a work out trekking back. The cute streams that we saw when we started turned into small rivers. We made it back to the truck. I took a picture and sent it to Mom. We were so wet you can’t even tell we were wet, the colors just looked darker.

When we got home, I took a shower to warm up, put on cozy clothes and we all enjoyed a movie. Before we knew it we were all passed out taking naps. It was a wonderful day full of fun, laughter, adventure and family.
