One of our most favorite hikes is called three forks and it is up Spanish Fork canyon. We decided to hike it this weekend. Since it was a last minute decision, it wasn't planned out very well. When we went last time, we left the little kids home and the hike went pretty fast. With it being UEA weekend, we didn't have anyone to leave Katie with so we decided to just tough it out and bring her. Luckily, we were able to borrow a backpack from a neighbor to carry her in. Unfortunately, we went a week, or two, too late to see the beautiful fall colors. It was still pretty but a lot of the leaves have already fallen. Even though it was not as vibrant as last year, we still had a great time! The hike didn't seem as long and hard as before, and the kids did great! They didn't swim in the hot pots but they did put their feet in. The hike down was awesome! The sun was just perfect and made all the leaves glow. Jaxon, Kierra and I decided to run most of the way with Jenny. It was so much fun! Jenny always wanted to make sure we were all together. If we got too far ahead of the rest of the group, she would run back to check on them and then come run with us again. She did that the whole way down the mountain. Kyson did get pretty tired on the way back down but his Daddy carried both him and Katie. Even though it took the whole day, everyone had a great time and we can't wait to go back next year!
