What a beautiful day ! We enjoyed a hike on the Occoquan trail. We hiked 3.2 miles in one hour and forty-five minutes. This trail was more difficult then the Blue Bell trail with many climbs and descents. We crossed creeks on pylons and bridges. I played a game with Lydia by having her find the blue trail markers on the trees to keep us on the right trail and to keep her moving quickly. Emily and Austin hung out and chatted along the way. It was great to see Austin make it across a stream when he thought he couldn't do it. At the end of the hike he told us how much he liked the hike. I think it is good for us to accomplish something we thought we could not do. It gives you confidence. As for the weather it was warm enough that we took off our jackets at the turn around point. It was disappointing that Willy chose not to come with us. His loss. Loved the morning.
Emily had her first church basketball game of the season. The girls need some practice but they did pretty well for the first game of the season. However they lost 10-33. They did a great job and had a lot of fun.
