Sunday afternoons are an interesting time in our house...I am a stay home, relax, watch a movie, read a book person while Andy is a get out of the house and do anything but stay home type of person. Whether it is going for a drive or going on an adventure he wants to be out doing something.
This particular Sunday afternoon we found ourselves at Bridal Veil Falls for a visit to see the waterfalls and a walk on the Provo River Trail! Who knew that this is the popular place to be on Sunday afternoons because it was packed! The boys were dying to throw some rocks in the water but there were so many people I was afraid they would hit someone and so no rock throwing for them!
To distract them from their desire to throw rocks we headed up the trail. It started off successfully...the boys were having fun walking, playing, and finding treasures on the side of the trail and then all of the sudden...
Tegan gave up...he was "way to tired" to keep walking and of course that one time we had only brought the single stroller because we were sure he would love running up and down the trail!
And after about the 15th time of him stopping and dropping in the middle of the trail we decided it was time to turn back. Well that just meant that we had to deal with him all the way back to the car! I bet in total he stopped and dropped to the ground about 25 times declaring that he was too tired, bored, etc. I had to run to get him out of the way of countless bike riders, long boarders, and joggers before they ran him right over!
Finally Paxton came to the rescue...found both of the boys a stick and they fought bad guys, pirates, bugs, and each other the rest of the way down the trail!
Thank goodness they found some way to entertain themselves because I was much to busy enjoying this view of my happy little boy!
