Mini Vaca: Food, Family, and Dworshak

After a crazy, crazy, crazy [did I mention crazy?] spring Dustin and I were finally able to take some time off from work and hit the road.  Our destination?  Not a graduation, not a birthday, not a wedding.... a family CAMPING trip!

Now, I haven't been camping [other than an overnight trip] in about 12 years, give or take?  So it was easy to say that I was excited.  But I was even more excited about the company.  Dustin's cousin JT (along with his gorgeous wife, Kim, and beautiful children, Jake and Jenna) and Aunt Deb and Uncle Greg made the trip up from California, and the rest of the family made the time to make it happen (whether they lived in town, across the river, 30 minutes or 3 hours away).  It had been a few years since we had seen them, and all been together at one time, so this trip was long over due!

In no particular order, our vacation included:

FAZZARI'S pizza (okay, this one is first because it's the best pizza on the planet)
Rafting
Camping
The Candy Bowl
Cake
Puppy Surfing
Cupcakes
UFC fights
Broken flip flops
Lost driver's license, which led to...
A trip to the DMV
Pictures
Almost getting lost
Olympics
Mandarin Pine
Seeing FRIENDS!
Boats and Wave Runners
El Sombrero
Ping Pong
Campfires and S'MORES
LOTS of laundry
Swimming
Poopy Pants (don't worry, this was Max, not one of the adults)
Sleeping under the stars
Bandaids
Lost keys
Manis and Pedis
A Zebra!
Golf
Wrong roads
Glow sticks (an exploding one in the bunch, too)
Sunscreen
Bugspray
Tattoos! (Miss Jenna, 8 years old, was our pro tattoo artist)
The ER (twice...)
Volleyball
Finding a great book
Holey Board
...did I mention food?
And FAMILY  :)















All in all it was a great trip and I can't wait until we can all get together again!
