Camping at the Beach


Grayland Beach State Park is our favorite place to camp!  We stay in this ADA campsite, privately tucked away at the very back of the campground, right next to the beach.  The kids drift off to sleep to the lullaby of the Pacific.  There is a paved loop that sees no traffic, so the kids can run and play freely all day long.  I could live right here! 

Gracie built a little tent, little campfire, and little breakfast for her little friends



"Daddy?  This coffee tastes like boots."


not sure why water is so much more exciting when we are camping

Blessing sleeping in

racing around the loop








the water was really, really exciting for Gideon














after watching the big brothers, Gideon got up the courage to try out the water

Gideon's trail


Gideon could have stayed here forever, splashing and feeling the waves move around him










sandy, soaked, and satisfied . . . heading back to camp for lunch

our campsite

Micah even ventured out of the tent for some yogurt
Camping at the beach is awesome!  
(And it didn't hurt that it was not 
pouring down rain all weekend, either!)

What an awesome family experience! Brings back memories of childhood when my parents would take us camping at the lake. Your kids will never forget it! <3
