Hiking the Dixie Rock. . .

The two big kids easily climbed to the top of this rather steep rock. We told Bryson not to go up there with him, but he had other plans. He actually scrambled up there faster than his big bro. and sis.!
You can't tell from this picture, but this perch was actually up quite high. JB set the kids up there and they couldn't get down by themselves. He teased them that we were going to leave them up there and we'd be back for them next week. Brinley's smile was quickly replaced with screams and tears of panic! What a big, mean daddy!

Bryson is such a wonderful big brother; he's holding the rock up so it won't fall on Brinley!


Braden rests in the shade for a minute before his next mountain challenge.



We learned something new about Bryson; he would rather blaze his own trail then to stick with the already established ones. He always chose the hardest way to get where we were going. Good for him!
