Fossil Hunting

 


We took the boys up the canyon to go hunting for fossils and boy did they love playing in the rocks and the dirt.  We even found a few fossilized shells.  Will felt like a real paleontologist.  He was so proud of every fossil we found.


Ben just enjoyed digging and picking up rocks.  He wasn't too worried about finding fossils.  He just loved that he got to use Daddy's shovel!


Will filled up his bucket with fossils.  He is so happy with his collection.  He also loved picking up all of the big sticks he could find and swinging them around like swords.  Such a boy.


It was amazing to spend some time together as a family and just have some fun!


After our fossil expedition we stopped and had a picnic.  The boys were thrilled to be able to eat outside.


Afterwards, the boys played in the dirt for a bit more and got really dirty.


I thought it was pretty cute and kind of incredible how dirty they got.  I guess they just wanted to prove they really did go play in the mountains.  I love our family time.
