With Mac at a por­trait ses­sion on Mother’s Day, I had the girls all to myself. It was such a beau­ti­ful day that I decided to spend some qual­ity time with them in the great New Jersey out­doors. (I don’t know about you, but it seems there are so many things to do around the house that my “qual­ity time” with the girls seems to slip away.)

We drove up the Palisades Parkway to the State Line Lookout (exit 2) which has a scenic over­look of the Hudson River and a lit­tle café. We took the short hike through woods along the cliff side of the river, past a water­fall and ended at the waters edge. The best part of this trip was our lit­tle pic­nic and the makeshift swing that no one could resist!
