Camping

Last weekend we went to the beach to go camping.  Remember my list ?  One thing marked off. Woo-hoo!

We camped at Devil’s Lake in Lincoln City, OR.  Since we were at a lake we were able to have the mountain experience of camping but since we were at a lake in a city on the beach we were able to have the beach experience too.

This is what we did:

  • Fished off the dock (My oldest caught one fish)
  • Cruised the lake in a rubber raft and kayak
  • Ate my favorite dinner – tin foil dinners
  • Roasted marshmallows
  • Walked along the beach
  • Played Dora CandyLand and Racko
  • Played cards after the kids were in bed
  • Played in the sand on the beach
  • Marveled at the sunsets on the water
  • Admired kites on the beach (we didn’t know it was kite festival – score!)
  • Walked to the candy store and bought Salt Water taffy
  • Came home exhausted, smelly and happy
