Yosemite


We headed off to visit the beautiful Yosemite National Park. 
 Pre-Hike photo feeling good!
 and we are off
 making our way to the trail-head


 Owen carried our snacks and water - he was amazing!
 up, up and up we hiked



 we had some tears... Meg and I hit a wall at mile 6... it was so hard.  Meg was not the only one crying.... I was too.
 We pushed on.  Because of the season the waterfall was dry.
 Post - hike picture.  We were so tired!  13 miles when it was all said and done.





 From the bottom to the top.  Memories made and lessons learned.  We talked as a family about how to get through something hard.  Pray!! Call on resources, eat gumdrops, stop and rest, cry...sometimes you just have to let it out and trying not to cry  - just plain hurts, swap shoes (Meg and I traded shoes to alleviate blisters),  Pray some more, and enjoy the scenery.

Thanks for the lessons Yosemite.
