Hiking Buddies

Matt, for years and years, has been dissapointed that I'm not the ideal hiking buddy. I have a bad hip and am not normally (read as 99% of the time) up for the *fun* of a long walk or hike. Which is a shame, because my husband loves both of those activities!

Jake and Viva are okay with a walk, as long as BOB (aka the stroller) is involved. Bentley? Not so into it lately.

But last weekend Matt found the right wording to convince the boys to head out with enthusiasm. Instead of using words like "walk" or "hike"... he used the word run! Bentley was bouncing with joy to get out the door for the chance for a good run on the trail. And Jake? Jake is always up for whatever his big brother wants to do. So off they went.

Hopefully (for Matt) the enthusiasm continues!
