With a year of parenthood under our belts, Mike and I have been wanting to rekindle our adventurous, wandering spirits since they have largely been at bay since Wren arrived. So we went all out and visited a new-to-us National Park with some of our very best buds. And while it was a hard decision to leave Wren at home with our families it proved to be such a sweet time for us to unwind, recharge, do things we've always enjoyed without limitation. Like lay our eyes on new sites and spend quality time both together and with Ben and Emily. Adventure was certainly had...from fly fishing the Merced River (Shout out to Yosemite Outfitters and David for being such a hospitable, knowledgable and easy-going guide!) to hiking some seriously scenic miles, to checking more National Parks off of our list, to shamelessly being total tourists. We hold dear these special memories!
But we sure did miss our little bird!

Thankful for all the adventures we take and always the sweetness of home.
