Well last weekend we took a “shake-down” trip to go car camping with Sara. It was a lot of fun and as usual for shake-down trips, we learned a lot. One of the biggest lessons learned was that with some planning, camping with an infant isn’t too difficult.

We have a new North Face 8 man tent, which is great for 3 people and a baby. Karen’s mom took great care of Sara and really helped out tremendously. We arrived at the Deception Pass State Park campground around 3:30, and just got the tent up before it started raining. Then it eased up a bit and we all got out and played (ok well maybe grandma and Sara played) and had a quick camp dinner.

The next day week took a nice hike with our friends Tracy and Ty along the beach to the Deception Pass bridge and then up to the top of Goose Rock.
I’ll put a link to a photo album with some nice pictures of Sara soon.
