Camping fun!!

Labour Day weekend we headed to the Valley for some camping fun at Yogi Bear Campground. We went with four other families & even though we felt like we were jammed in like a can of sardines, we all had a great time. Bethany loved her first camping adventure, especially being able to play with all the kids for so many days in a row! Matt & I were both really impressed with how well she slept considering it was really loud (notice the trailer right behind our tent...they were not great neighbours). But she had great nights & naps in the tent, we were very proud of her...she's a trooper!!!

Bethany was seriously excited about the tent, she loved it!

Waiting in line for the "fishing pond." Come to think of it, where did that treat bag go that she got??? Someone owes me some candy!!!



Nothing like a good scrub in the dish tub!!! She loved it, I think she was just happy to be finally clean...she had a nice sheen of dirt on her most of the weekend!

Meeting Yogi, she kept saying "hug Yogi, okay" the whole time in line, then when she got to him she was in awe.

Our family by the campfire (the soother "sookie" is just for bedtime, but it was late, and we were camping, so I broke a lot of rules!!)

Bethany, me & Jayme

I think my face pretty much sums up "This is my 3rd night of camping"

The end of camping....Bethany is worn out! But there's more Bethany, now we're going to the zoo!!

Bethany loved feeding the deer, she was not scared at all and stuck her hands right in. At this point my camera died & I took a couple more pics with Gary & Rachel's camera, so I'll post them later.

It was a great weekend with lots of laughs & yummy junkfood!!! We enjoyed the time to just hang out with our friends & relax!!! A perfect way to end the summer & Matt's 6 weeks away at sea!!!
