Family Weekend in the Burg

Matt's mom and dad and his youngest sister along with her husband and daughter all made it down for the weekend, this past weekend. We had a really nice visit, well at least I did :)

Saturday morning we decided to go for a hike with all of us, including the two little ones! Everyone seemed to fair well through the walk!

We wanted a fairly short and easy hike so we opted to hike up to the waterfall at Hone Quarry. If you've never been- it's a great family hike to go on. The Trail name is Slate Springs.

You take 257 West through Montezuma and Ottobine, when you get to the store, make a left to stay on 257 (if you make a right you go to Clover Hill there).... keep going to 257 grocery and make a right to continue on 257. This takes you back to Hone Quarry- you'll see a Brown and Yellow Park sign on the right- make this right - which is FD 62... you follow 62 back through the camp sites and past the reservoir about 2 more miles. Look for a trail to your right numbered 428A, on your left will be a 'lane' going down a short hill to a campsite and to your right is the trailhead... and off you go!

The family gang (minus Matt, he was taking the picture...)

Me & Kaitlyn, Marci & Ashley, and Buxton-standing at the top of the "waterfall" (hey, at least there was some water coming by!)

Mom and Dad Landis- out with the walking stick!
Aaron and Matt doing a little raspberry pickin!
Of course, Buxton found the water- no problem!
Ashley and Kaitlyn hanging out on Sunday morning in their matching dresses before church! Now isn't that just the cutest thing ever!?!
Thanks for the great weekend!

Sounds like such a fun weekend! That picture of the two girls is absolutely precious!!! That is going to be so fun for them to have a cousin so close in age!

Kaitlynn is looking bigger every time I see her! :) So sweet.
