A Picnic and a Hike

Sunday afternoon, hubby and I headed to the park for a picnic. It was a beautiful day. The weather was cool and the sun was shining. We have a list of things we wanted to do this summer and a picnic was on that list! And the weather was finally cool enough for it to be enjoyable.

We started out with a little appetizer. Trader Joe’s Everything Crackers and Spinach, cheese and artichoke dip made with Greek Yogurt. This stuff is AMAZING. I picked it up at Wal-Mart the other day.

I love this picture of us:

I made sure to pack a healthy picnic:

After the delicious eats, we headed out for a hike. This is actually the first time we had ever gone hiking and it was AWESOME. It was so peaceful and beautiful. I had never experienced anything like it before. These huge, towering trees and just silence all around. It made me feel small. Like I was so insignificant in the world. Really a great feeling! It was an hour long hike—here are some pictures!

I wish I had gotten more pictures to capture the beauty—the ones I took of the path didn’t turn out! We will definitely be looking for more areas to hike as well as go back to check out more trails at this park.
