We managed to sneak in a 2nd camping trip this season. We went to Mt. Rainier over Labor Day Weekend so it marked the end of the summer for us.
Unfortunately Griffen wasn't able to go with us this time but we will make sure that we plan for next year because he was pretty bummed that he didn't get to go.
It is nice to get away from all of the hustle and bustle so that relaxing is just about the only thing you can do. We had no cell phone coverage which made it impossible for me to attempt to work and really gave us the opportunity to spend quality time as a family.
Matt and Knox hiked Silver Falls while I stayed at camp and read. At 36 wk pregnant a 2 mile round trip hike just didn't sound appealing.
We enjoyed spending time with Grandma, Pam, Ryan, Renae, and the cousins. It was especially fun to see Knox and Kaas play together, and they were nice to each other for the most part.
In the evenings we enjoyed the campfire, smores, and games of dominoes.
Matt and I decided that on our list of "wants" for next year we would like to get a tent trailer. With additional little ones on their way it would make things so much easier. We will see!
The one thing I'm sure of is that we will be reserving our site for next year in about April!
