Day in Sequoia Park


Today I drove my boys up to the Sequoia National Park for a day of hiking. It was such a beautiful day today, and even the drive up there was enjoyable. The boys and I had a wonderful time surrounded by God's beautiful scenery filled with His glorious nature.

Joshua was being his usual self being an adventurous, curious, climbing little monkey!
We drove up to The Giant Forest, which was about 45 minutes into the park. When we arrived, we walked thru the little museum they had for visitors there. The boys had fun reading about all of the super cool nature facts and games they had.




















We picked a hiking trail that led to the "World's biggest tree". Halfway there however, the boys got too tired, so we all decided to hike back to the trailhead.

We had fun nevertheless! I love being able to spend quality alone time with my children. They are the most precious little ones to me in the whole world!! They also appreciate the fact that I am able to focus on just them, and no one else on our special days together. It lets them know that they are valued and that I deeply love and care for them . . .
