Camping 2008

Mom and Faith, the spoiled puppy.
The kids were trying to skip rocks.
We went for a very nice hike.

This is our new pet! :)

Zach and I went camping this last weekend at Manchester State Park. Mom and our friends, Jeanette and Lisa, joined us. Gretchen and Jim and the kids were able to come out for a couple of hours on Friday and on Saturday to hang out as well. Friday was a beautiful day but it decided to pour on Saturday. We stayed in Mom's trailer for the majority of the day. We did venture into Port Orchard for a few games of bowling and Jeanette got her highest score ever! We had a lot of fun, and I wasn't really ready to leave yet. I started Fall quarter the following day.

Zach and I really enjoy going on hikes around Washington. We have done many in the past, our most recent was Rattlesnake Lake. It was a beautiful day the view was amazing! It was a four mile hike (2 up, 2 down). We had perfect weather, but we wished we had gone earlier in the day because it started to get quite toasty up there.
