These next pictures are from another hike up at Red Rock. We really enjoyed this one, it was definitely one of our favorites. Gavin did really well on this hike too. We sort of think it was because he was carrying his duck with him the entire hike. From now on the duck comes hiking to ... a whole family affair.

Yes, that is my lovely husband dangling from a rock with Gavin on his back. Needless to say that I was in panic mode, but he kept doing it until I took a picture to mark the wonderful moment where my heart just about jumped out of my chest. I tend to get nervous a lot when he is carrying Gavin. But Matt is always saying he's not going to do anything he isn't 100% sure he can do. Every once and a while he'll listen and decide not to scare me half to death. Let's see ...

Rocks are seriously one of Gavin's FAVORITE things. Any time we go on a walk or even outside for that matter we have to get him some rocks to hold on to. He carries them on our hikes even. Every time he throws one or drops one we have to pick up a new one. He loves his rocks. And this is the gorgeous waterfall we spotted at the end of our hike. Yep, that's it. We just had to have a picture. That's Matt playing in the "mist" of the waterfall.

After the hike Mr. Gavin had fun stretching his legs.
