First Hike of the Season

Thanks to Uncle Anthony we have an awesome hiking backpack for Maddox and plan on having a ton of adventures this summer. Since the weather was nice this last weekend we decided to make our first hike of the season at Multnomah Falls. We only hiked about 2.5 miles, but the first 1 1/4 were straight uphill! I know I was sweating, so I can't imagine how Trey felt with our chubby little sweetheart strapped to his back. Maddox seemed pretty amused taking in the scenery and the people we met along the trail. He is sure the little observer these days! Below are a few pics from our adventure!

2010 Tulip Festival

The Klugs recently headed out to the 2010 Tulip Festival at the Wooden Shoe Tulip Farm in Woodburn, OR. The day started out with beautiful weather, then in true Pacific NW fashion a rain storm rolled on through. After a brief rain delay standing under a large tent, we were able to head back out to the fields and check out all the awesome tulips. We were a little unprepared, because also in true Pacific NW fashion since there was a ray of sunshine I had decided to wear flip flops, which didn't fair well in all the mud. By the time we were finished cruising through the fields the stroller wheels were caked with mud and each of my shoes weighed about ten pounds.

The festival was full of fun things. In addition to all the flower fields there was a gift shop, a vendor fair, a kids carnival, train rides, a plant sale and a food court.

The festival was amazing and we can't wait to go back next year!
