This week’s Wednesday hike took us to Big Soddy Gulf. I’m not sure how it happened, but summer time is almost over and this is our first time to make it to this swimming hole this summer! It was a short hike — 0.5 miles round trip, but it was our 42nd hike for the year (42/52) bringing us to to 124 miles on the trails in 2021! 

Family Date: Signal Mountain Playhouse

Family date night to the Signal Mountain Playhouse. It’s a local outdoor theater that puts on a great production every summer. We’ve missed the last few, but managed to go see Bye Bye Birdie tonight. It was a little more mature than what we would normally take the boys to, but the cast did a great job. Isaac fell asleep in my lap right after intermission. Shout out to Daniel for sitting through a musical, I’m pretty

 sure this is his least favorite activity, but he was a trooper.

  

Hiking Friends Pool Party

In lieu of our weekly hike, we opted to enjoy one of our hiking friend’s pools. So thankful for beautiful, sunny afternoons, and friends to spend the day with.

Aquarium Day

We met up with our original field trip friends — we’ve been doing fun stuff together for seven years now! I think the most memorable part of the day was the Isaac decided to do a cold water challenge. Int penguin area he stuck his hand in freezing water and held it there for something like 300 seconds. I finally had to tell him to stop. He's officially the reigning champion! Rainy summer days are perfect for a visit to the Chattanooga Aquarium and get ice cream afterward! I am so thankful for good friends and fun places to visit locally.
