Camping at Fort Worden

We had a great weekend camping with friends this past weekend. We stayed right on the beach at Fort Worden. There was so much exploring to do...finding treasures on the beach, or finding our way through the dark tunnels of the forts, playing on the beach or in the water, hiking, of course making smores by the campfire...never a dull moment. There were three families...6 adults + 10 kids + 1 dog. I only took 417 pictures...but I'll just share a few!

It was cold, but boy was it pretty!!The kids all digging in the sand...could have played for hours!!


Thank you Likkels and Wiersma's for such a fun weekend. Our kids will look forward to our next camping outing together...and who knows where we'll be 10 years from now...it sure was fun to think about! Who knows...maybe some day some of these little munchkins will be married. Now that is a scary thought...that would make us joint in-laws.....

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!!!

You are the best Daddy to this crazy bunch and we love you very much!

You guys got some awesome photos on your camping trip... how do you all look so beautiful when you're camping? We'd look like a wreck. :)

What a great time with great families!
