Three Trips, Three States, Three Posts - Post Two

Our second trip of the Dobson Summer vacation marathon continued on a camping trip to Lake Cushman.

I don't have as many photos of this trip because I wasn't allowed to document the "no makeup" "haven't washed my hair today" look.

This trip marked the maiden voyage of the Dobstar with whom we fell in love and made part of our family!

It also marked Crusie's first camping trip and just like Flat Head, the overstimulation resulted in lots of sleep :]

We cheersed ourselves with Rainier beer at 9am...

Played ladder ball with British accents...

And we're constantly yelling for our pups.

We had campfires, ate a ton of good food and have so many fun memories. Justin and I still laugh out loud at some of the events of the weekend :]

Abu and Ace needed some R&R on their aunties lap from all the swimming and ball playing!

It was a pretty ruff weekend for them!  :]

We're already looking forward to next year!  Cheers!

Our New Family Member

We have a new family member in the Dobson house... The tent camper! 

Some family friends of ours were selling and let us borrow it for a weekend of camping and we fell in love!

It's big for a growing family and will make camping easier and more enjoyable for us :].  Here is a little tour!

The outside of course. It's a 1999 Starcraft, we'll call it the Dobcraft, is super clean and much larger inside than it looks from here.

After entering the door (you can see on the right) and turning to your right we have a king bed behind a comfy couch  (that can turn into a bed) and a dinette area (that can also turn into a bed. Underneath the couch is an self draining cooler that you can keep drinks etc in.

Now walking in the camper and turning to te left we have the "kitchen" with a pop up sink and mini fridge (under the Tupperware drawer). The metal bit on the floor is a propane stove top that connects to the outside of the camper. 

What you see in the back is a generous queen size bed and a full view of the left side of the camper.

We love it and I can't wait to get my hands on it! I've already been on Pinterest looking to see how to maximize storage and might even update it a little.  I will definitely fill you in on all that We decide to do.  Until then, welcome to the family little Dobstar, we love you!
