Wickiup 2015

We had another memorable trip to Wickiup this year!  The weather was so perfect this time...zero rain/storms.  It was really warm, even at night.  Peyton was in heaven like usual.  He is still obsessed.  He broke down in tears twice on the drive home and told us he wants to live there.  This year we finally bit the bullet and bought a tent trailer.  It made it so much easier to make our food last the whole week and to keep things more organized.  I love it.  We are going to try and get away for another weekend or two before school starts.  The rest can be told through my huge load of photos....


All packed and ready to go.  And the last time our trailer would be shiny, clean and new :(

So excited and ready to hit the road.

Of course Bun-Bun and Panda came along.
Home sweet home. 

The first couple days were overcast, but still pretty warm.

Mastering the art of skipping rocks.

The second day we were there, Liv's bike tire popped.  She was riding a hand-me-down Cars bike of Peyton's so we decided to just drive into town and get her a bigger, new bike.  She loves it!
On a 2-mile hike with Grandpa.

Sully! This was his first camping trip and he did so well.  He loved it and he is just about the cutest and the most hilarious little boy! Love him.


Livvy and Austin

All smiles as he is in his favorite place in the entire world.

Sully and his mommy/daddy

These two were inseparable all week long.
Reunited after an entire year!  Brad left for Japan last year for the USMC when we were at Wickiup last year.  He has a couple weeks back in the U.S.  It was so great to see him, he looked so much more grown up and strong!

Olivia is so a Daddy's girl right now.  She was clung to him all week.

Love this girl


Swimming with Rissa

Liv hit wiffle balls like crazy in camp

Helping Sully with his form...wish it wasn't blurry.


The kids slept in everyday...exhausted from the day before.  AND!  Liv didn't suck her thumb this entire trip! I think she knew her hands weren't the cleanest and so she just didn't do it.  Crazy.  So far so good at home too.  I'm hoping she's officially kicked that habit.

Doing some sponge painting with Sully

Sully painted his face, haha

I did a ton of wakeboarding...however I took a pretty nasty fall and hit my head so hard on the water that I saw stars.  I had to take a day off because my neck was so sore!



Beach bum

My Pops.  I really was missing my mom again.  I have so many memories of her at Wickiup.  I feel like she was watching down on us though.  Miss you Mama.




Sully's hair just kept getting more amazing each day

Playing on the beach at dusk

Can't get enough of this view



Ha
Peyt met a boy there that was a few camp spots down and they would meet up after dinner to hunt frogs. This kid...I wish I had his social skills.

Olivia was left out a lot of the time with Peyton and Austin off playing by themselves.  She had fun with Sully but after he left she was kind of bored.  The last night we were there, this girl from the camp spot next to us was sitting on the beach.  Liv sat down and kept getting up and sitting closer and closer and was copying everything she was doing.  It was so funny.
