Tristan and I took the kids up to Evergreen, CO on Saturday. My friend had given us a voucher to take 2 boats out on Evergreen lake (thanks Ali!). The kids were SO excited (and a little nervous at first) and loved taking turns in the canoe and paddle boat. The scenery was oh-so-pretty and the 68 degree temp make for perfect boating weather.
Next we headed over to a nearby park to have our picnic, and we encountered a large herd of elk! There were 20-25 of them, and they were so close to us….I got a little freaked when this male elk sauntered by – just steps from me, but luckily he didn’t seem too interested:)
Our picnic table sat under 1,000-year-old pine trees. Gorgeous.
Hiking was fun although, I don’t know if our shoes were “official” mountain climbing gear? ;)

We ended the day with ice cream cones and the kids falling asleep in the car on the way home. It was a beautiful, fun day. Loved it x10.
