Silver Creek Falls

What another gorgeous today!  It wasn't quite as warm as yesterday but it was still probably about 74 and sunny.  We decided to head off to Sublimity, OR and go for a hike at Silver Creek State Park.  Our friends Jeremy, Elijah and Haddie joined us too!
It was Benjamin's first time in the Kelty backpack but he really seemed to like it!  For the first hour of the hike he mostly just slept like this....
Elijah and Haddie did so great on the hike.  It was so fun to have them with us!
The park is just beautiful.  I think we saw 4 or 5 waterfalls on all the different routes.  It was a little crowded since it was a nice Saturday but it felt good to get out and get a bit of exercise. 
Can you spy Peter and Benjamin in this picture?  :-)

After we hiked, we had a picnic lunch where I consumed far too many Mint Oreos.  We played a bit at the park where Benjamin had a complete diaper blowout, so fun!  The drive home was pretty and we had a tasty pasta dish with Jeremy and Kristen at their house for dinner.  We came home and gave Benjamin a bath and he talked so much, it was crazy.  He's really discovering his voice and I just love it.  Peter and I are both a bit wiped tonight (despite our obvious great physical condition!) so I think we'll sleep good.
