White Water Rafting, Camping, and the best Mother In Law Ever!

River Rafting 2010

Top Row: Mike&Jamie, Rick&Holly, Mark&Kari
Bottom Row: Casey&Beth, Tiffany&Kory

Our group shot just after finishing our trip down the Wenatchee River! It was amazing, a bit more exciting than last year and I even took and unintentional swim! Yep, I fell overboard :) I thought the whole boat was going to be in water and that I would be followed by Casey, Kory, Tiffany and our guide Erik shortly, but luckily it was just me that went swimming. Once I came up for air Casey was waiting, ore stretched out to give me a hand back to the boat! Thanks babe! I already cannot wait for next year, unofficial plans are already underway to try the Skykomish River next :)

Holly and I the night before rafting, enjoying some time around the campfire! A big thanks to her and her hubby Rick who are the planners and organizers of these trips and the one's that got us involved in the first trip last year! We ♥ you guys!

Me and Tiff
So glad that her and Kory could come rafting this year with us!
We would have missed our BFF's if you guys hadn't ;)

When going car camping this is one of my 10 essentials!
It's a stove top espresso maker and it makes a lovely caramel latte! It is also the perfect cure for lack of sleep, slight hangovers and chilly mornings!

These 2 are quite the team!
Tiffany prepared homeade pizza dough and sauce before our trip and she and Kory perfected the art of BBQ'd Pizza Saturday night!

Here is one of the pizza's cooking away on the mini Weber!
The pizza was delicious. Casey and I ♥'d it!
Thanks for cooking

A shot of our camp.
The 5 of us couples shared 3 campsites at Tumwater Campground near Leavenworth!

On the way home we stopped at Eagle Falls just off Hwy 2 near Gold Bar. We stopped there last year too and we just think it's beautiful!

My hubby getting ready to get this shot....

Love this one, great shot babe! And Happy Father's day to you too!
You are the best Daddy around!

And I came home to find this cute little daisy that Casey's mom had potted for me while we were gone! I have the best Mother in Law ever, hands down! She is always willing to come stay the weekends with the kids so Casey and I can have our adventures. She never comes empty handed, she does spoil them a bit, but that's what grandma's are for! This weekend she took the kids to Norah's last T-ball game and pizza party! She also took them to see Toy Story 3, they both loved it and told me all about it when we got home! Thank you so much Jamie, (and Tyler and Breanna) for taking care of the kiddo's so we can get away once in a while and have some fun ourselves!
