We'd been wanting to go camping all summer, but it was one of our toughest summers financially and we just couldn't afford to pay for it, or have Pam take off from work. But my parents and sister wanted to go too, so they booked a site and we said we'd join them. Ont he drive up to Lake Del Valle we got stuck in crappy Friday rush hour traffic. And that's precisely when Makena announced she had to go potty "right now!!" We pulled over and the little travel potty seat came to the rescue!
Hiking with Mama and Grandmo.
Playing in the dirt with cousin Sofia.
Helping Grandpoppy with the fire.
Smores. Makena wouldn't eat them (have I mentioned how much I love this kid!), but she liked helping to roast the marshmallows!
Grandmo reading the kids a bedtime story.
Picking up trash while on a hike,
It was a fun short trip, Makena was pretty much covered in a layer of dirt the entire time. She liked riding her scooter with Sofia, and going on little hikes and exploring. And she liked finding long sticks to poke at the fire with cousin Nicolas. She had been going through an exceptionally clingy phase and that was difficult at times, even being outdoors wasn't helping! But we made it through, as always!
