Cabela's and Hiking

We spent Saturday morning at what is probably Papa and the kids' favorite store... Cabela's. Papa had a list of a few items that we needed to get and the kids love checking out the animals.
They each ended up buying something. Little Bear bought a fire starter/whistle, Pudge bought a compass, and Pequeño bought a smaller (keychain size) compass/whistle. Pudge was so excited to give the cashier his money and made sure that they knew that he was paying for his very own compass. 

After a quick lunch, bathroom break, and adding some of our purchased water and snacks to our hiking bags, we started hiking on part of the Appalachian Trail. We started at the Port Clinton entrance which is close to Cabela's. Knowing that the initial ascent was going to be steep, Pequeño started on my back and since I'm also 25 weeks pregnant I wore my heart rate monitor which we used as a guide for when to slow down/take a breather/water break a few times on the way up. 

The kids favorite snack this trip was Peanut Butter Clif Bars. We'll definitely buy them again. They were a great eat as you go snack and they were big enough that we would often split one bar between kids.
