Memorial Day Weekend

We decided to make our Memorial Day Weekend into a 4-day weekend and go camping at Fort Stevens State Park in Oregon. We went with our good friends Logan & Laura.

Kason, Allison and Chris around the campfire (I don't know where she gets that attitude)
We had gotten Allison a bike on my birthday, and then the day we were leaving we got me a bike as well so that I could ride with Allison while we were camping. Chris noticed all the fun we were having and decided he needed one, too. So, by the end of our camping weekend, all three of us had bikes and are excited to go riding a lot in the future.


On Sunday, Chris' Dad, Brenda and the kids stopped by the campground. We decided to check out the Fort Stevens Historical Site - and since it was Memorial Day Weekend, there were lots of activities going on.

The "group"
There were a lot of bunkers - some had lights and some didn't. Allison was NOT okay with them and thought they were scary.

Allison and Kason - they were great buds for "most" of the the weekend.
Chris and Allison being silly.
Allison slowly learned to enjoy the bunkers and then she wanted to go in EVERY one. That kid cracks me up.
They were shooting off old cannons. Allison was a good little girl and plugged her ears...

And finally, on the trip home - Allison decided she needed to wear my helmet to be safe. Silly girl.
And not long after...she was asleep. That weekend wore us all out!
