We love to take the kids on day trips whenever we can. We are lucky to live in an area where there are a lot of places to go that aren't too far away. We think it is great education for the kids to learn about Nevada and nature and all that good stuff! This year we went to the Salmon Run in Lake Tahoe. We did this a couple years ago and it was so much fun. It is a beautiful little hike to the salmon.
My sweeties!!!
When we got to the lake the salmon were all over. It was beautiful. They were all trying so hard to swim upstream to lay their eggs. The kids were amazed and so were we. This is such an amazing sight and we love being able to share these experiences with our kids.
As you all may know bears love salmon. There are so many people watching the fish that we never thought we'd need to worry about them but...
WE ACTUALLY SAW A BEAR!!! It was really cool. We were a little nervous because it was a baby bear and we all know about mama bears but we only saw the baby. Ben took a picture, I picked up Kyle and had Makayla right by my side, we took a look at the bear and then it ran off. I have to admit it was the most amazing thing I have ever seen!!! I think the kids will remember this experience their whole lives!
And them my little monkeys decided they needed a little nap after their hard day!
