So, camping for us didn't work out this year :(. We tried to get our normal camping spot like we do every year, but it seems that people are onto our plan and have found out about the awesome campsite we've had year after year! We tried to make reservations, but to no avail. We lost the reservations by SECONDS each time! We needed other plans and Brandon's family cabin was available, so we decided that it would be a perfect place to go with these little girls and family. The fun thing was that we were ALL going to be able to take a little vacation together!! My brother, my sister and her family, and my parents! We haven't all been camping or on another summer vacation since before Brandon and I were married, so this was going to be a special time no matter what :).
These girls had so much fun together! They laugh, play and even argue like sisters! It's pretty special that no matter how far physically they are, they are still super close and love each other so much :).
We spent our week in the sand, on the beach, taking walks, eating some great food and making some lifelong memories together.
Throughout the week little Leah had some fun in the sun too :). And we finally got to hold and cuddle with her after not seeing her for 4 months! Oh fast they grow :).
We tried our hand at making some s'mores cones. We filled them up with lots of sweet goodies, wrapped them in foil, and put them over the fire. Some turned out great, some not so much, but it was worth a try. The girls loved them!
We made our way to Meeks Bay one day and it ended up being the perfect morning to play in the sand and sun. They only tantrum that was thrown was when it was time to leave.
On one of our last nights together we went out to Emerald Bay and took in the sites there. We have pictures of us as little as the girls here :).
We really tried to take a picture of all three girls with Uncle Jeremy, but seriously?! Couldn't at least one girl cooperate?!
It was a very fun week and the goodbyes were very hard (as always), but we made some great memories to last a lifetime that we will treasure always.
