Martin Luther King Holiday Fun

Monday Jan 16, 2011
The day began early with a commercial shoot for our friend Frank Schwartz. Coop man did great while we were there and the guys were getting the lighting, cameras, etc all set up but once it was time to film, he was ready for a nap and let everyone know it too! He was not happy so I won't be surprised if Coop and I get cut out of the commercial. We had fun though and it was first experience for our little family.

After lunch, we drove out to Crowders Mountain and met up with the Beauchamps and Harts for a hike. We were not very prepared: 1- we didn't bring enough warm clothes for Coop so we borrowed the Elijah's coat & 2- we didn't know how to work our Ergo Baby carrier so we just used the Beauchamps bjorn....I'm glad they were prepared!

We had a fun time chatting while enjoying some exercise and fresh air. The hike was a couple of miles and Matt had Coop the entire time. There's something about being outside in nature that makes me appreciate the greatness of God's creation- especially when we reached the top- such a reward! On the way down, Coop was M.A.D. We felt so bad for him...The entire 2 mile hike or so downhill was a long hike for all of us. We left the group so we could hurry fast and come to find out that we made a wrong turn and hiked an extra 1/2 mile. Coop was tired, cold and hungry. We finally made it back and we were all relieved.
