Camping + Toddlers = Very Dirty Toddlers

We took the kids camping last weekend. Two nights at a campsite up near Mt Rainier. The kids had a blast. It was really fun seeing them enjoying being outside, eating at the picnic table as a family, going hiking, sleeping in the tent together. We got to christen our giant 6 person tent!

The place was pretty nice. Lots of big trees and on a river. There was a bit of a hike down to the river but it had a nice swimming hole. Jeff, Bob and I went swimming but Kiera went in up to her ankles and said "No, no, no, no, no!" It was freezing cold water but felt good since it was so hot.

We were also lucky that the wildflowers were out in the mountain meadows. It really was beautiful and we had a great time. Kiera managed to get completely covered in ashy dirt and both Bob and Kiera enjoyed climbing the big rock in our campsite.
