Happy 2016! We kicked off the New Year by going out to dinner with friends on New Year's Eve and tucking ourselves in long before midnight. What party animals! We made up for it this weekend by tapping into our adventurous sides and taking a spontaneous day trip to Hanging Rock State Park. The views from the mountains were beautiful and we hiked to the top of Hanging Rock with our neighbors. Here are the kids at the Visitors Center at the beginning of the day:
These adorable little hikers quickly learned that when they announced: "Let's take a picture here!", that 4 IPhones would immediately whip out of parents' pockets... and that there was usually a snack break and rest involved:

| Second Graders: Preston and Luke. |

| Brooks and Leah. |
There were caves, huge rock formations, and lots of photo opportunities along the way:
When we reached the summit, we could see for miles, and the view was breathtaking:
It was such a great way to ring in 2016 with an unplanned excursion. Here's our little Peanut with a special New Year's greeting for you. Hope your 2016 is full of fun and adventure, too!

What a fun way to start 2016....glad Luke didn't need a parachute! Love, Bean
The park looks a bit like Thatcher Park in the Helderbergs near me. What a wonderful trip and I just LOVED Leah's video! Love, Gammie Davies
