Impromptu Hike

This past weekend we went up to St. Johns to celebrate Great Gran dad's 90th birthday {blog post to come soon}. We left Friday right after Sofia got home from school and she was so excited to go on a road trip. We came back Sunday morning and let me just tell you what our plans were-
  1. Wake up, pack, and clean up the cabin
  2. Get ready to go to church in Heber
  3. Stop somewhere to get breakfast
  4. Go to church
  5. Drive back home
And it didn't happen that way. We got up, cleaned up the cabin, packed, got ready for the day and realized we were running short on time. The only one wearing church clothes was Sofia. Brian and I decided just to drive back home and rest all Sunday. And that didn't happen.. What can I say, The Mortensen's happen to be spontaneous.

On the drive back Brian started talking about creeks and hiking. Then he said how we had no rush to get home so we decided to stop at Sharp Creek. Our little stop turned into a hike. It was the best! We enjoyed nature and each others company. We had a wonderful time hiking and we even took turns holding Hazel. This was Hazel's first hike and Sofia's first time "stepping" in a creek. 





 This picture right here was taken minutes before Sofia "stepped" into the creek. That is the story I will tell you, otherwise Sofia will get mad.

 Brian helped Sofia clean her feet. She will tell you how cool she is for "stepping" in a creek.


 Hazel enjoyed her first hike :)

We had a wonderful time in our Impromptu Hike. Then we drove home and enjoyed the rest of the day as a family.
