Dorena Lake camping trip #3

This was our 3rd camping trip this summer and it was a fun one because we had cousins come along. My aunt, uncle and their 2 kids reserved a campsite just across from us and we all had a blast. Although they moved back to the Corvallis area about a year ago, we haven't spent much time with them other than family get together's for birthday's and holiday's. It was a lot of fun to spend a weekend together.

The kids spent all weekend working on this bird nest and using fishing line and soda cans to booby trap our camp site. They were so creative and worked and played so well together. It was really fun to watch and listen to them play together.
The weather was a little cooler, in the high 70's low 80's but everyone still got in and played in the water.
Dorena has a great swim area for the kids to play.
Bricen showing off his muddy foot - don't let daddy see! (He hates the kids getting dirty - I have to wash them up before he sees)Lily loves riding in the boat and I think she enjoys camping in general. Tucker takes his own vacation at Grandma and Grandpa's house, which he much prefers. Bricen loves driving the boat and if Brian's not careful, Brice will push it to full speed. The sunset was beautiful! Brianna and Everett gravitated toward each other and Brice and Dario could hardly be separated. Everyone loves smore's!Sharing, how cute!
