Summer Camping 2010

 This year we were happy that Shane was able to take some time off of work to do some quality family time out in the wilderness.  He doesn't really enjoy camping but did it for all of the rest of us that love it.  Thanks honey!  Since we don't normally go camping we didn't really know where we should go we asked around but the ones that were suggested were all booked up.  We eventually found one that had flushing toilets and thought that was the one for us because Lauren was potty training.  All of the rest of us really enjoyed having good toilets that didn't stink!
 While we were there we enjoyed going on hikes, cooking on the fire, lots of treats, playing with the chipmunks that loved m&m's, singing camp songs, coloring rocks, finding firewood, making camp flags, listening to our drunk neighbors (NOT fun) and just being together.

Ryker just wanted to be like dad and play with the fire but was a little scared of it.  Thank goodness!
 Brianna put on a treasure hunt for her sisters and they found COOKIES!  Good job sis.
The view was gorgous.  It was really windy when we got out on the bridge and the bridge went on forever.  The kids kept asking when we were going to turn around and go back.  We did make it to the other side and the kids did make it all the way.  Lauren did get carried for a small part of it.

Ryker loves to wear Brianna's sunglasses.  So cute, right?

 I don't know why that picture is sideways but I'm to tired to turn it right now.  Sorry!  Brianna love to collect wood from the mountain.
 On our last day there we found this playground a little ways from the campsite.  I thought it was cute that it was in the shape of a boat.
