On our way home from Vancouver, we took the scenic route and drove through Mount Rainier National Park. It was an amazing drive with great views from every angle. We did a short family hike to The Grove of Patriarchs: an area of ancient trees, some of which are about 1,000 years old. Landon and Elliot loved being out of the car and running around the trail by the trees.
When we first got to the park, we stopped at the visitor's center and took a family picture there. Landon wanted to look at the rushing water below instead of the camera. 
For some of the trail the boys walked on their own and for part of it, we carried them. They loved every minute of being outside hiking. (The shirts they are wearing are a constant source of comments about superheroes from strangers.)
Those are BIG trees!
We live in a beautiful place and enjoyed seeing another part of God's amazing creation!

Wow, you got some GREAT pics. Rainier is so beautiful, we really cannot wait to go back. So sad we just missed each other by one week!
Great pictures! We did that two years ago in the spring and it was beautiful! Everywhere you look is breath taking. Looks like you guys are out enjoying the weather. Call me sometime next week. I want to go walk the trail going the opposite way of the law school or even out by your house I have never walked that direction.
