I think in a prior post I mentioned that Marc and I had sat down with the calendar and marked down what we wanted to do this summer. We though we would give camping a try as the kids hadn't experienced that yet. We went to Coquihalla Campground in Hope and got a site right on the river. We spent hours playing in the water and throwing rocks. We had an incredible time and really enjoyed just being "family." On Monday we headed to the Othello Tunnels which the kids thought were "so cool." Here are some pictures of our time.
Benjamin played with sticks quite a lot...even sticks that were on fire. I had a bit of a problem with that but Marc just laughed.
We had to borrow Marc's dad's van so that we could fit all our stuff. Hannah was super excited.
Benjamin loved playing in the river and even though he fell in 3 times he kept going back for more. We finally decided swimming trunks were required. (Next time I'll be sure to pack more undies.)
Hannah loved everything about camping and was a great playmate for her little brother.
Roasting marshmallows for the very first time.
Enjoying a morning cup of hot chocolate.
My family in the tunnels.
The kids hiding in their "cubbie" in the tunnel wall.
Just chillin' at the campsite and enjoying a refreshing beverage.
Hannah doesn't look very excited (I think because she knew it was almost bedtime.)
My handsome boys.

I'm glad you guys had so much fun! How great to experience marshmallow roasting for the first time. I hope someday we'll be able to join you camping :)
Looks like fun. S'mores....wow, I haven't had those in YEARS!!! Definitely one of the best parts of camping if you ask me. :) Glad you had such a nice family time.
