Summertime Bliss


As you all know Jeff and I went camping on the coast with his family for his birthday. We took a week off from work and finally got to take a vacation together! It was a lot of fun, and we appreciate all the effort his family put in to make this camping trip happen. Jeff and I have been together for just shy of 6 years and it was the first time we had ever gone camping before.

Monday, we took off work but just spent the day getting everything we needed together and lounging around the house. With all the craziness we have had this summer it was really nice to just have a laid back lazy day. We enjoyed it!

Tuesday, was Jeff’s 31st birthday! (Yep, it’s true he’s oldJ) We spent the morning packing up the jeep then by the afternoon we had started our trek taking the ferry from Edmonds over the sound to Kingston. It was a beautiful day and the drive was gorgeous!



I know it rains a lot here but you can have all this wonderful, green scenery without a lot of rain! When we finally made our way over to Kalaloch, WA we set up camp and headed to the lodge for Jeff’s birthday dinner with the Family.


  Wednesday, we woke up and decided to move camp sites to be closer to where Jeff’s family was. (We had three reserved but only ended up using two). There was only one camp site between us and it was nice being so close. Eventually we wondered down to the beach and spent the day playing in the sand and soaking up the sun! Together!


 
Thursday, was spent more or less the same. Beach time, exploring the camp ground and good quality family time!

 
Friday, we packed up by early afternoon and slowly wondered home stopping by a couple of cool beaches along the way…

 
 
Over all it was a great trip. We enjoyed the time spent with our amazing family and finally squeezed in a vacation together!
