Our first camping trip

We finally decided to face our fears and take our first camping trip since having kids. Since Joshua is still so young, and it was the end of September, we decided to rent a Yurt instead of camping in a tent. Let me tell you, I may NEVER go back to camping in a tent again:) The Yurt had beds, heat & electricity. This was a huge bonus for me so I didn't have to worry about if the kids were going to get cold during the night. You just had to bring your own bedding and it was definitely $40 well spent!
Other than David getting a minor head injury (that boy can't go anywhere without getting hurt) and a baby boy who cried a lot during the night, it was a pretty successful and very fun trip!
We headed out Thursday after Kimmie got home from school. We checked in and unpacked. The first thing we did was walk to the beach to play. The kids LOVED playing in the sand. It was a little chilly and misty, but overall a very fun time.
After playing, we headed back to our site to start the fire. We cooked hot dogs over the fire and the kids were so excited to cook their own. After dinner the kids played around the site and then we made s'mores, delicious!!!
The next morning we headed to the Oregon Coast Aquarium. We spent a few hours there and then my sweet husband agreed to drive us 2 more hours to the Tillamook Cheese Factory. Man, it was crazy busy!!! So, we just walked around and then got some ice cream. Seth & I shared "sticky buns" ice cream and now it is all I can think about, seriously the best ice cream ever!!
It was a great night away and I can't wait to "camp" again:)
