Camping for Naomi’s Birthday

The next day after our busy last day of school, we got to take a short camping trip. Heather, Derek, Emma, and Naomi were already up at Rasar State Park which is only a short 20 minutes away. We got there at about 11:00.

I flooded the trailer because we hooked it up to the campground water without a pressure regulator on my hose. Note to self: buy a pressure regulator before next camping trip!

For some reason the girls love to make balls of sand whenever possible. This was on a sand bar on the Skagit River.

Heather had fun crafts for the kids to do and yummy food for us to eat. She made it real easy for me to bring the girls up to camp. Mike couldn’t come with us because he had to work.

Naomi’s birthday “cake” was pudding with bananas and Nilla Wafers. Yum!

We had a great time playing ball, riding bikes and scooters, and sitting by the campfire.

I was surprised when we woke up to rain the next morning! The weather was supposed to be good, but it wasn’t meant to be. We had planned to stay until that evening, but decided to break camp and head home. The girls would have been happy to play in the rain, but the grown ups weren’t really up for it.

I’m glad we were able to be back because we ended up taking dinner over to Great Grampa Clyde because he wanted Mike to help him with the computer. It was a nice visit!
