Leavenworth, August 26th - 28th

We had planned on camping this weekend for quite awhile, but didn't realize it'd be in a recently purchased house trailer. No complaints here. We left home on Thursday after Kirsti got home from work, and parked in the campsite just north of Leavanworth about ten minutes before it really got dark. We relaxed and played for a few days, and came home on Saturday evening, forgoing another sleepless (courtesy of Delaney) night.



I'm not sure why this pic turned foggy/glarry, but it did. This is the 1st night after getting to the campground, with the girls ready for bed.

The 2nd day, and Delaney is taking a bath already. The tub in the trailer is just their size.

Oh! We can splash!

Approaching evening on Friday, and there is only one chair so far at the campfire.

Looking into Moira's bed from the outside. Notice that her 'friends' made the trip.

Delaney at the tale.

Mommy and Moira roasting Marshmallows, while Dad takes a picture.

Moira roasting her marshmallow.

Mom pulling it from the stick. Moira likes to burn her marshmallows, which is lucky, because Kirsti and Moira like to eat them burnt.

A silly look.

A silly smile.

A sillier smile.

On Friday Moira and Daddy had gone for a walk without the camera. It was, of course, long, with awesome scenery. We decided to take Kirsti and Delaney for the same walk the following day.

Moira and Mommy (with Delaney) headed up the hill. It was one long hill - probably 1/3 mile up and the same distance going down on the other side.

A good excuse to rest and take a picture.

Dad carrying Delaney.

Moira walked the entire way, just over a mile in total.

Smile :)

The girls in front of what is called 'Split Rock'.

Near the top, Kirsti and Moira talking.

Now a pose.

Running down a slight dip before getting to the real peak fo the 'mountain'.

closer.

Delaney, Kirsti, and Moira at the top.

I believe this is looking up Stevens Pass, not positive on that though.

Moira and Daddy looking at the view.

Time to walk down the other side, back to camp. Moira's doing a Huckleberry Finn.

She got a kick out of this, until the stick broke.

So many things I can say here, most of them would probably get me in trouble.

Back at the camp site, and Moira is playing elussive something-or-other in the trees. Can you see her?

No really, she's there.

We can see her a little better now...

Notice the gate, with the stiff arms.

"Come on DAD!"

Farther and farther she goes...

The campsite was pretty spread out, and Moira enjoyed running around, finding rocks, sticks, and holes (not sure what lived in the holes - there were a lot).

Quite a bit of Vine Maple in the park, as well.

Now we're running around some more. Anyone else worn out by watching this?

Delaney makes an appearance.

Scoping out Moira's chair (Delaney has her own).

Daddy and Moira napping.

Not sure what we're looking at - the campfire?

Mommy's disappeared, and Daddy has Moira make some silly poses on a tree stump.

Another one.

A 3rd.

We're done now. Shortly after this picture was taken, we packed up camp, and headed home. The girls had fun, but did not sleep that well at night (Delaney especially).
