Next stop...Lake Wenatchee!

The C shift families on the fire department have a yearly camping trip that they go on. We were excited to meet other families on the department. Only one other family went on the trip, but we still had lots of fun. We liked the campground a lot. We did learn in the middle of the night that our rain fly does not work. Ben had to put a tarp over our tent at 2am. We spent the morning drying out our tent, sleeping bags, and sleeping pads. If you don't have a dryer to dry things in, turning the heat on full blast in the car works wonders!!

Leavenworth...cute town!

Our tent on day 1...we did not stay dry!

Our tent on day 2...we stayed very dry!


Our electric pump was not working in the great outdoors so Ben blew up the mattress.
He almost passed out.



Swimming at the lake. The water was freezing!


Rafting on the lake



Side note...five people do not fit on this little raft. That is why Caemlyn is hanging on the side. The girls took turns hanging on the side. The raft did suffer from this abuse (Sorry Mom!)


Notice the chipmunk on the rock. The chipmunks at the campsite were a little aggressive and would do anything for food.


Our group hiking back from the lake

The kids loved playing on this fallen tree


Gotta love the selfies! I only do selfies because my husband hates it :)

We found a great hike that was good for the kids. After about 1 mile, it started pouring on us. We cut the hike short.


Trying to stay dry
