Checklist #4

Our next family adventure was probably my favorite, although it will definitely be better next time now that we've learned several things.  The list said, "take a hike along the Barton Creek Greenbelt" so I thought the adventure would be mostly hiking with a possibility of swimming in the creek.  Jake was the only one of us wearing a bathing suit and Luke was the only one wearing water shoes, and the moment we arrived I knew the kids were going to get very wet!  We were alongside the creek the entire time, and at some points even crossing it in order to keep hiking.  Again, Jake LOVED our adventure and immediately was asking when we could come back.  Our day reminded me how I truly appreciate living in the Austin area. It was a gorgeous hike, and it felt like we were in the middle of nowhere when we were actually in the middle of Austin.  What a treasure we have here!  Here's Luke enjoying the water...
