We packed up the car and drove to Morrow Mountain State Park in Albemarle, NC on Saturday morning to spend some time with our friends, the Mayers. Our intention was to take the children for a hike using our "kid-friendly" backpacks. Apparently a few too many months have passed since the time we took N hiking, and he's no longer friendly with the backpack ~ he had a major meltdown temper tantrum while riding on his dad's back!
We kept thinking it would be over soon enough and he'd start enjoying the hike, but that just didn't happen. Instead, we spent the morning playing beside the Yadkin River and then enjoyed a picnic lunch. Both children loved running around, looking at the water and playing in the sand, and we weren't nearly as tired as we thought we'd be when it was time to go home. As my friend B put it, flexibility is the name of the game these days!

I was looking on google for pictures of Morrow Mountain and came across your blog. We have never been there but going camping in Aug. Looks like it is a pretty place. Cute little guy!
