So, I may or may not have had a little meltdown last week. I think that the emotions/hormones of the pregnancy got the best of me. I felt like I needed a break from life. I think Brian felt that too. Friday when he got off shift he told us to pack our bags. He had a surprise mini vacation planned.
We drove an hour to the Wichita Mountains and stayed in a little town called Medicine Park.
 |
| First stop: lunch! |
 |
| Second stop: Mount Scott. It was so beautiful. We could see a blue lake on one side and the mountains on the other. |
 |
| We found a great place to stop and fish. |
 |
| The boys enjoyed all of the rocks for climbing |
 |
| We saw buffalo. Or "elephants" as Samuel called them. |
 |
| We went on our first hike as a family up to what we named "Rapunzel's tower." |
 |
| Lucas and I at the top! |
 |
| Lucas and Sam trying to get into the tower. |
 |
| Samuel decided he could walk no further. After we told him we were going to leave him in the wilderness he changed his mind and joined the rest of us. |
 |
| This is five minutes into the ride home. Peaceful and sweet. |
This trip was such a blessing. We had a great time as a family. We hope we can start making that trip more often (maybe even making it a day trip).
