Memorial Day Weekend!

On Sunday of Memorial Day weekend, we decided to go for a hike up Sypes Canyon.  I had hiked a little ways up the trail once before, but had never made it to the lookout point (I had limited time and was forced to turn around early).  Doug biked up the trail a few weeks ago and was reminded of what a great view you get at the lookout, so he wanted to take us up there.

We headed to the trailhead pretty early Sunday morning.  It was a little overcast, which ended up being good because it wasn't nearly as hot and we didn't have to worry as much about Drew getting a sunburn when he kept ripping his hat off his head!

The hike wasn't too bad, and after a little over two miles in, we were met with a spectacular view of Bozeman.  The clouds were still hanging around, so we couldn't see as much as we would have liked, but it was still a gorgeous view.

Drew was a trooper and didn't complain a bit.  The hike was a total of 5.5 miles, so it wasn't exactly a quick little hike either.  He did great.  It was a fun hike and a great way to spend the morning!

It was a fun, eventful Sunday!

Monday, we decided to go down to the Memorial Day parade.  We figured Drew would have fun and it was a beautiful morning, which made it even better.  Drew loved watching the parade go by, and especially loved when the dogs and horses came around.

We had a great Memorial Day weekend, and we hope you did too!  Happy Thursday!

Tomorrow we are off to Colorado for the triathlon, so I won't be blogging tomorrow or Monday.  Have a great weekend and I'll be back on Tuesday!
