Walk this way!

As Dave and I have been recovering from two weeks of passing a nasty cold back and forth to eachother, we haven't done any hiking in 2 weeks. The girls, however, don't understand mommy and daddy being sick. So we toughed it out and took them for a 3 mile walk around the open-space trails by our house.

Ok, so maybe I do need the new iPhone so I can take better pics...

We originally intended to do the "Denver loop" [this is the 4 mile route that takes you back up towards the hogback up high enough where you get a nice view of all of the metro area including the downtown skyline], but we were both just lacking energy.

We even combined the walk with a stop at the grocery store. The girls always hate to see mom go in without them, but they are always relieved when I come out. It's like they think I might not return? So strange. Love them!
