The weather was turning, and it was chilly, so we grabbed sweaters and jackets, and headed out.
It was a beautiful small hike/walk down to the falls. The leaves were turning, and the air was crisp. It was so refreshing.
We got to the falls, and the kids began hoping around on rocks and just playing around. The water was FREEZING, so I was not at all worried about them actually getting in the water, or getting very wet.
Ben and I were talking, and enjoying watching the kids play, when we heard people laughing, and we heard Williams yell/scream he does when he is doing something crazy, "manly" or daring. This is what we saw.
William was walking across the water in bare feet, and the water was quickly getting higher and higher. He was screaming and hollering from the freezing water, but he was also laughing. I could not believe it! That kid is nuts.
Sure enough, Mary ended up following close behind. She was shrieking and shuddering as well. What the?
All of the people there, bundled up in jackets, blankets, were watching the craziness and chuckling.
I could not believe that Mary and William could stand it. It was hilarious hearing them holler and yell. Come to find out, Sam had dared William to do it, and Williams testosterone filled brute boy personality, could not pass up the dare.
They made their way back to us, and at that point they were completely numb. We just shook our heads. We kept on hanging out, when I glanced over, and saw this!!!
We could not believe it! By that point our family was definitely the spectacle at Bridal Veil Falls. Epic.
After Luke finished his daring adventure, everyone was freezing and begging to go home. Go figure.
We quickly snapped a family picture, and got in the nice warm car.
Definitely a Maynard style outing. Love it.
