"Don't think, just do" was what a wise 10 year old told me at the top of the cliff as I preceded to jump 50ft. Felt like I could do anything after that. #lillhiking #campingseason1 #jumpingoffeverything #hadthebestcheersquad

Into the forest I go, to lose my mind and find my soul.... and to climb things can't forget to climb things.

This little dork just got promoted from the 8th grade. I wish he could just stay little and cute forever, but just enough for me not to babysit...ha! #foreverlittlebrother #sistermom #rarefamilyphoto #familyiseverything (at Tracy, California)

🎶 Just keep climbing, just keep climbing, what do we do we climb #alamerefalls #justkeeplookingup (at Alamere Falls)

Alamere Falls was wonderful. Everything I hoped it to be. I think it was my first solo hike. I absolutely loved it. I need to stop letting fear stop me from what I really want to do. I’ll work on it.

Although, this hike comes during a really sad time, the beauties of the coast still amaze me with its wondrous views and breathtaking cliff sides. It helped me be at peace, and helped make all my sadness and problems feel so small. I didn’t hike down to the bottom of the beach though… I think I was waiting for someone to come with me to complete the trip….. I don’t think that that is ever going to happen now. But it will be okay, Lilly.

This a little late, but I wanted to wish the most hardworking, selfless, wisest, funniest man I know a happy Father's day. The man who taught me everything I know about humility, the importance if intelligence, the importance of independence, and most importantly love. Thank you so much for all your hardwork that you put into raising my brothers and me. I will never be able to say it enough. (Couldnt find a picture by himself, so just had to settle for this lovely one.) #fathersday

Happy Mother's Day to alll the Moms and all women who have played a significant role in caretaking and nuturing childern!! Most importantly, I want to thank my mom for all the love and all the hardwork she continues to do to raise me and my brothers. She gives so much and never expects anything. Although I've been in denial in the past years, I can see now I am exactly like her, and I wouldn't have it any other way. I couldn't have asked for a better mother. Thanks Mom. #beautiful #oneofthemosthardworkingmoms
