On Saturday the Hiblers came down and we went to
Snoqualmie Falls. It is a 270 foot waterfall on the Snoqualmie River. Here is the view from the upper observation deck.
Here we are from another view point. As usual, Kaylin didn't care at all.
We wanted to go to the viewpoint below the falls. Not realizing that it was more of a hike than a walk, we took the babies down in their strollers. Previously I'd only been to the bottom of the falls, I'd always parked in the lot near the bottom. And it had been a few years since Eric had been to the top so he didn't remember the hike part either. Plus it's always easier without a baby tagging along. I'm glad I was wearing shoes rather than sandals, but I wished I had on my real tennis shoes. There was one point where we took Kaylin out of her stroller so one of us could carry her and the other one could carry the stroller. Somehow the Hiblers managed with Brighton in her stroller. I'm not quite sure how they did it. Here we are at the bottom:
And here are Dale and Eric pushing the strollers back up the trail. We all got a good workout. The Hiblers said that next time they come to visit they are going to bring a change of clothes because they never know what we're going to make them do. I think that's a good idea :-).

Couldn't have said it better myself. That's why when I put my pictures up on my blog, I'm going to link to yours, so they can read your take on things.
I'm so jealous of all the fun things your doing!
Please let me correct myself: you're :0)
Too funny! We were there that morning and did exactly the same thing... except we'd been on the hike to the bottom before so we brought the backpack along... I can't even imagine pushing a stroller up those hills... and the stairs. My goodness you guys are brave. Somehow Brandon got the easy part and packed carter down the hill and I packed him up... I don't know how I agreed to that arrangement! We had a good time though. One of these days I'll put the shots we took up on our blog. =)
How fun. It was so stinkin hot that day I bet you guys were dying! What are you up to this week. We need to hang out!
That looks like fun! We will have to do that one of these days. Would a baby hiking backpack be better than a stroller?
