This year, our annual camping trip mostly revolved around these two...
It's hard to take kids this age camping. There was lots of holding, chasing, wandering and diaper changing. No crawling was allowed, especially since there was plenty of mud. But, we had our big kids, so there was also jumping off the log, playing in the raft...
bug bites, ping pong, Ticket to Ride...
s'mores, the dutch oven, bocce ball...
and skipping rocks at the river.
We're glad our friends came and kept us company this year. It made the sudden rainstorms (yes, that is plural) a little more bearable. And it gave Tanner one more thing (Lily) to look at. It also gave Tyler some peer pressure when Spencer offered $10 (!!!) to whoever would jump off the top of the log. In a nutshell, I'm still not much of a camper and I get the most excited when it's time to come home. But I sure value that family time.

Looks fun. (Well, everything but the rain.) Memories . . .
We've been to Gualala quite a bit. . . but we stay in a house. :) I'm not much of a camper either, but you set a good example for me!
What a fun trip!! Despite the rain, I guess!
Sorry about the rain. Rain and camping is no fun together. I love the picture of playing ticket to ride though. We still need a rematch with Spencer so he can redeem himself :)
He lost again to the red headed beast! Haha!
Great fun!
Love Ticket to Ride!! Great post and pictures! Gives us an idea of what to look forward too next year! xoxo
