Tumalo Falls

This past weekend Cole and I drove up to Bend to spend the weekend with Chris  - and we FINALLY made it to Tumalo Falls this trip.  We've been wanting to do this hike for a couple months, but it just hasn't happened until now.  Fortunately, it was a trip worth the wait - the falls were beautiful:


 The view from the top of the falls:



Chris' parents found this amazing Kelty Kids backpack at a yard sale for only $30!  Cole loved it and I have a feeling we'll put it to a lot of use in our upcoming Yellowstone vacation.


Cole was so impressed with the falls, he couldn't take his eyes off of them!


We started a 4 mile loop hike along the Tumalo Creek, heading toward the beautiful Double Falls, but we got turned around by too much snow!  Yes, over a foot of snow on the trail in the middle of June - welcome to Oregon!
Cole was having so much fun he was "talking" (screaming) at the top of his lungs while we were hiking.  It was adorable.

The dogs really enjoyed themselves:






We had such a lovely time enjoying the outdoors - I have a feeling Chris can't wait to take Cole camping and on all sorts of outdoorsy adventures!
