Fall Hike

Yesterday we spent the day hiking in gorgeous Transylvania County, NC.  We couldn't have asked for better fall weather.  The color was really beautiful.  There are 250 waterfalls in that county, and we had been wanting for a long time to go find some.  Then I read that we could go see some where they filmed The Hunger Games, so we joined the crowd and sought them out.  First we saw Triple Falls.  It was huge.  There are three huge waterfalls that cascade down.  The kids had a blast climbing all over the place and jumping all over the rocks.  They had the best time and Jayden kept thanking us over and over for taking him.  He said he wasn't that excited about going to see waterfalls because he didn't think it sounded like that much fun, but then he had the best time ever and can't wait to go again.

Here you can see the top two falls.  If I wasn't pregnant, we would have climbed to the base of the third one.

 Here are all three. Obviously it's way more impressive in person.

 You know Jayden is having a good time when he asks to get his picture taken, which he did multiple times.

 Josh took both kids way up to the top.

Next was Hooker Falls. A lot smaller, but still gorgeous.  We couldn't get the kids to stop leaping all over the rocks.

 This picnic table had a turn table on it that Josh spun them around on.  Too much fun!
