We had our annual camping trip over the second weekend in July with our great friends, the Salibas and Timms. Hani made reservations a few months in advance up at Deception Pass. It's a popular place to go camping, and now we can see why. It was awesome - good hiking, beautiful scenery, and not too far from Seattle. We had such a great time. It did end up raining on us late Saturday night, but we didn't let that ruin our trip. Danielle introduced us to banana boats which are one of my new favorite things to have while camping. It's basically a smore stuffed inside of a banana. You take a banana, peel one part of it back, put chocolate and marshmallows inside, replace the peel, wrap it in tin foil, and place it on the campfire. Once it is nice and warm, you take it off, crumble Graham crackers on top, and you have a fabulous banana boat. This trip was definitely another camping trip to remember with a lot of good memories. Next year, we will have an even bigger group with the addition of Nathan and the Timm's new baby who is due in January.
Me, Emily, and Danielle on our hike - it sure does get more difficult to make it up the hills when you're 28 weeks pregnant. It was worth it though, the scenery was amazing!
