On Mother's day we decided we would go to Starved Rock and spend the day as a family. Our family loves to hike and have a picnic. So that is just what we did. This was the first time Carter hiked the entire way and wasn't in the backpack. He did a great job and made it the entire 2.5 hours. (Well, Daddy did carry him on his shoulders for about 10 mins.) We did a new hike this time and it was beautiful. Our family was able to walk behind the waterfall and we all thought that was pretty cool. The weather was beautiful and perfect for hiking. The kids have really become great hikers. They know to stay on the path, not touch the greenery in case of poi sin ivy, and listen for the waterfalls ahead. This time we even had to do some maneuvering around water puddles and mud. Mom, has also learned to pack spare clothes and shoes for everyone. It was a great trip and a great day
