A Walk in the Mountains, Texas Style

Shawn made sure everyone had a hat

After lunch and in the heat of the day (smart move) we decided to head off to Franklin Mountain State Park to walk through the desert a bit.

Can't remember why we thought it was necessary to get a snack on the way.
It was right off post and only took half an hour.

Crazy man with the sunscreen again. No one got burnt all week, thank you, Shawn

It was the beginners trail, 1/2 mile total

Shawn also made sure everyone was hydrated with his camelpack. Every time a pink cheek popped out everyone had to take a drink. A man used to the desert.

we saw none!

Nice hat Shawn hahahaha

The kids had such a great time looking at everything and so much energy. They loved being outside.

 

We all took a turn corralling Lily. She has no fear. We just visualized her falling into a bed of cacti

another drink

cousins

Shawn always has great information to share or was he giving them another drink?

drink?

We had such a great time!

so pretty. We loved the scenery so much Jen took a ton of pictures to use as art in their new house.

A safe place to give her some space

Sami got tired, she said we should have brought the wagon.

These two never get tired

We spent so much time there that the park was closed by the time we left and someone had to come unlock the gate for us. Although Shawn had to get out and show him how

Another fun day!
