First Bike?

I`m looking to buy my first bike. Looking for something I can start riding trails on but also just casually around town with my kids since I will only have one bike for the time being. From some online research, I`m considering a hardtail.

Welcome any thoughts/suggestions anyone has on the ones I`m looking at or any others?
