Camping, 2013

Happy Campers!

We took our annual camping trip with Doug and Kirstin in August, and had a great time as usual! This year we stayed in the Kenosha Pass campground. A great little hiking trail, the Colorado Trail, runs right through the campground, so 2 year old sized hikes were readily available. The site was really pretty, with plenty of trees and flat spots for tents. Good find, Chris!

Doug and Kir show Elizabeth around the campsite
 Kirstin brought her hammock again, and this year, the girls got to help her set it up!
Em, the little mountain climber
Addie - she has her hammock rope, but hats and baby Anna are equally important!


Emily was super psyched to help Uncle Doug set up his tent. Doug and Kir both have lots of summer camp experience with kiddos and show endless patience to little ones. 


Addie was super psyched to spend some time in our tent after it was set up. 


Zippers!!


Elizabeth shouted out orders while chillin' in her bumbo.


Let's go for a little pre-dinner hike!


Riding high!


We found mushrooms! 


And flowers!


Campfire time!


Elizabeth got the good ol' wide-eyed fire stare going, and Addie was close by to offer cuddles.


Big smiles from our littlest camper.


And then...Emily found DIRT. And she found that she LOVED getting dirty. 


Oh yeah, I think you'd call this a dirt bath.


Silly messy girl!


Before heading to bed, Kirstin helped Addie and Emily re-toast some cheese quesadillas they'd been too excited to eat at dinner.
