We decided to camp at a relatively closeby campground out in the snoqualmie-baker national forest. It was only 100 or so miles away, and it took only a mere 4 hours to get there on Friday evening. Really, it did. The drive was pretty awful and we kept thinking about all the 4 hour away places we could have gone, but then we arrived at the campground and it all seemed worth it. We were right by the river and it was a nice spot to camp. Really pretty.
Kayla found a taste for huckleberries and attacked the bushes near our campsite to try and get to one of the remaining few. It was somewhat comical, and of course very cute.
We did some hiking on both days, the hike on Sunday being a sweet northwest forest hike alongside a river, complete with lots of moss and big trees. The day before, Kayla copied her daddy by using her stick (or dada as she so called it) and walking with it all over camp after we got back as well. You can also see in the picture that she did not hold back on getting dirty.
To add to all the fun we were having, we noticed on Sunday (well, I thought I had noticed it saturday night but Tim convinced me that I was having a vision of the mouse spirt who had an important message for me. And I for some reason was convinced by that), anyhow, we noticed that we had a mouse visitor in the car. It left presents for us all over the place and tore our tissues to shreds. We never did find out what happened to it, but I was a bit leary on the drive home that it might pop out at any time. How much more exciting could things get than that?
