Strawberry Creek Fall 2014

The Fall weather here in Snake Valley has been exceptional. The leaves have had a gradual change. We've been able to adjust to the fact that winter is around the corner easier; instead of usual early snow storm systems that can move in. We've had an extended warmer season which has allowed us to get out and about. I can hardly believe that we are nearing the last week of October! Geeeez.
One recently Sunday, we met our friends Jess and Benjamin at the Strawberry Creek trailhead to enjoy a little hike with the kids. I had been there the weekend before and the colors weren't as vibrant as they were this time. One week ~ what a difference!
Our first stop was actually not the trailhead, but a hidden picnic area in between the beautiful aspen stands. All around, there was a golden glow.


I took a few cute pictures of the kids: Ava, Isaac, Willow, and Benjamin 





Couldn't resist the cuteness......



Then, we drove up to the trailhead to meet some other friends ~ Royce, Lupe, Adolpho, and Blake.....






We decided to eat our lunch before our boots hit the trail.......




















Willow is always a happy hiker :)











Nearing the end of the trail......





It's been great to make some extra adventures this warm Fall season..........


Until a road leads us to another adventure.........
