A hike, daddy, and downtown Denver

Today, since my dad was gone on a trip my brother, mom, sister, and I went on a hike. When we arrived at the hiking trail we started out all energetic and happy. A little way down the path we saw a giant rock slope which we all immediately wanted to climb. My brother first went to the very top of the slope which I at first were to afraid to go on but the realizing what a view I would miss headed up behind him. The way up was pretty steep and when you got close to the top there was a little walk way in between two giant boulders. It was worth the climb, the view was beautiful, you could see a few mountains in the back and the whole peaceful field which the path went through. As we carried on we headed into the forest which was full of green plants and sparkly rocks. Finally, we came to a river with a bridge over it. My sister and I went under the bridge on the rocks and came up the other side before crossing the bridge. By then we were really tired and were just thinking about nice cold ice cream which we were getting afterwards. Since we didn't have water with us we would scoop up fresh snow and eat it whenever we got thirsty. Finally we got back to the car and went to get ice cream. When we got back to the house we ate dinner, went in the hot tub and right to bed. The next day we went to pick up my dad at the airport in Denver. On the way there we played games and talked. When we got there we went to get the what was said to be the best pizza in Denver which was really good. Next we went to a bookstore which was really fun. we stayed there for awhile just reading books and laying around on the comfortable chairs. When we left we decided to take a walk around and go to get dessert. We took a bus over to a street where we walked to a bakery to get cake a brownies. Finally, we headed back to the car. We drove back to Evergreen and had dinner at the house. We went in the hot tub again that night before reading and going to bed.
