First Noble/Asmann Family Camping Trip??
A rainy success!
The plan was to camp near the coast Friday and Saturday night. We had a good plan for staying warm and cozy including an air bed and heated blankets.
But the weather had plans other than the normal chilly July temps at the beach . . . It poured. Even by Drew's standards it was NOT camping weather.
So we called my support staff (i.e. My dad) and he found us a great hotel room right on the beach.
I couldn't have been happier. Beach access, hiking and most importantly a shower!
Chris letting the kids have a campfire experience by lighting the dura-log in the fireplace.
You may be nervous at this point seeing a 3 year old and a 5 year old with matches in their hands. But Chris did a great job teaching them about fire safety.
Very proud of themselves!
Hike to Fort Canby.
Drew and Ellie atop a bunker, or a 'bonker' as Ellie called it
3 little girls in rain coats
Teddy Bear picnic in the sand.
Note the amount of sand on her hand! She was covered!
The mommas
The dads
Ellie and Livie loved the waves and soaked up these few minutes of sunshine!
Even Ellie got tired on this hike. She fit in Jude's sling just fine.
Big kid!
After spending the weekend being constantly thankful for little luxuries I think Drew even realized that 'camping' in a hotel is much easier with 2 kiddos.
