So Eric's whole family went to Pete & Gwen's cabin for a few days. We had fun being with each other. On Saturday we went on a huge hike that wiped me out. I learned that I have never really learned to push myself to achieve something hard. I am not sure how to learn the skill of pushing past my limit.
On the hike the dogs went ahead and started barking wildly, we heard a loud noise and someone yelled bear so we all started running, Eric handed me the baby and I was shaking I was so scared. I couldn't see Moke or Hatosh and that terrified me. As we were going we heard a whistle and Lamar yelled that it was not a bear but a cow. We all got a good laugh over that.
I did indeed cry at a few points on the hike, I was exhausted and didn't think I could make it. Maheone was such a great motivator, she kept cheering me on. At the end little Moienah was getting cold and so I had to push on to get her to the truck and warmth.
I kept praying for strength and I truly believe the Lord was watching out for me and giving me that little extra to keep going.
We had a fun trip and I am thankful for the time we got to be with family. It is a blessing for the kids to be so close to their cousins and grand parents.
