Labor Day at Silver Falls

 Here we are hiking the falls again.  There's not quite as much water in the late summer, but it's still a lovely place to be.  Carson was the best hiker out of all the kids.  He walked the entire way, even back up to the top and he never once complained!


 After the hike we played in the creek up above the falls.



 There is also a playground near the swimming area.  There was so much fun to be had, we stayed there until dark!
 We went with several other families, so the kids had lots of friends to play with.  Here is Sydney wading out in the water with the other girls.
 Carson likes to get is hair wet whenever he's around water.  He says he making it curly.  I guess he remember us doing that to him when we was younger.  Notice the chocolate cookie all over his face!

There was also great digging places.  We could have stayed there forever!
