Old Enough to Hike!

by Papa K on September 6, 2016

On Saturday we went on a fun hike with one the family of one of Maile’s good friends from school. They have a daughter Maile’s age and an older son – for awhile we’ve watched from afar on Instagram as they took fantastic hikes all over the Bay Area. We always said once Lauren was a little bit older we wanted to start exploring in the same way. They took us out on one of their favorites on Saturday and we had a blast. We did the Batteries to Bluffs trail and it was perfect – not too hard, fun spots for the kids to explore … and absolutely beautiful views!

And just like that the summer is over and the first day of school has arrived. Today Maile started 2nd grade and Lauren started her second year of preschool. Both girls are old pros at this point and were very excited to be headed back to school. Drop-off went super smooth and the girls were excited to see their friends, meet their new teachers and check out their new classrooms. Definitely a successful first day!
