This is a bit late but better late than never.
On the 19th of July my Mom and Dad came to visit us. It was so wonderful to have them come and see us. In the whole 6 years of our marriage this is the first time they have come to see just us. We were so excited.
On the 22nd (my birthday) we took a trip to see Mt. Rainier. It was beautiful. Here is a picture that my mom took to show how tall the trees were.
We stopped right inside the park to have a picnic. Marie-Eve was so excited to have a picnic that she wouldn't sit down at the table, she had to sit on a blanket on the ground.

Right by were we stopped to eat was a creek. It is that color because of all the iron.
We decided to take a hike to see some falls. This was a bridge over the river so we could start our hike up to the falls. Mom was so scared and didn't think she was going to be able to do it but she did. And it was a good thing since she is the one that had the camera.

Here we are on the easy part.
Lee saw this huge tree over the river and couldn't resist leaving the trail and taking a look.
Taking a closer look at the river.
Carter Falls
We were so glad to finally make it there. We had been hiking for about 2 hours all up the side of the volcano.
We all wish we could've been Stephane. LOL
Lee and I were thirsty and man was it good.
Yummy!!!
This was so funny. When Lee and I went down to the river to get a drink Lee told Marie-Eve to sit on that long and not move. And man did she not move. Gramme and Papa tried to get her to come close to them but all she did was put her hands on her hips and say "No, my daddy told me to not move." And she didn't. What a cutie.
Candid shots. CHEESE!

Taking a rest.
This is the major falls on Mt. Rainier, the Narada Falls. They were so cool. One day we will have to go back and take the trail to the bottom of these falls.
Christine Falls
On our way back down this deer crossed the road.
This was such a fun trip and I know I want to do it again many time before we leave this area. The views were just breathtaking.
