Cuyahoga National Park.

We decided to head out on a family adventure and drove to Cuyahoga National Park this past Saturday. We had SO much fun! If you can't tell... we love to get outside as a family and go to different parks in our area. We have to take advantage of all of this green around us before it's too late! Here we are happy and ready for a fun day together!
Lincoln insisted on getting his own map and took his job very seriously consulting it every minute.
The path was perfect... I loved every minute of it. Who wouldn't with such cute company?!
Gracie is a little daredevil and thinks that she can do anything and everything by herself lately. She loves to climb things so these rails were just for her!
We had a stranger snap a family photo for us in the rocks on the wall.
It was pretty busy and there were lots of stairs... we did the best that we could with the kiddos... they got tired after awhile.
The reason why we came... to see these beautiful "Brandywine Falls".
I went to sit down on a bench and saw this etched into the wood. For me it stands for Lincoln and Gracie... best friends for life!
Aren't they gorgeous? I thought so...
Jeremy loves nature... this view of the meadow was breathtaking!
Lincoln was an excellent tour guide... he did such a good job picking which way we should go!
We had a nice little place to have our lunch... we perched the camera on a log and got a picture of all of us!
This is one of the boys favorite things to do when we go on our little adventures... Lincoln tries to give Graham piggy back rides... Graham loves to pull his hair!
Gracie was so cute... they had some built in steps around the trails and she would say, "stair, stair, stair..." for each one that we climbed. She's learning so many new words... she surprises us with new ones every day!
Lincoln had lots of fun throwing rocks in this 'murky marsh' (as he called it). We had so much fun... we can't wait to go back sometime soon!

You are always going to fun places. We need to be more adventurous out here.
