Photos of the Week: July 25

“When you come to the edge of all that you know, you must believe one of two things: There will be ground to stand. Or you will grow wings to fly.” – O.R. Melling

We went on a two-night camping trip with six moms (including me) and 12 kids at a state park pretty near Seattle aptly named Scenic Beach. My friend, Eric, dubbed it Mummer Camp. Perfect for all those camp activities like starting fires and creating keychains.

There was a lot of wildlife at Mummer Camp. Some of it was native.

Cooper the dog was happy when we were home and all together again. So was I – somehow the grounded got harder to sleep on in the seven years since I last camped!

Here comes the sun La Croix display and the sign of the week!

  1. You are one brave mom. I never did well with camping, although I love nature. The picture of Cooper and the kids rolling on the grass is priceless. Have a super weekend.

      1. Really! That’s awesome!! Thank you- I love that whole “artistic concept”. No stores around here do anything like that. And this one I think might be the masterpiece. 🤩🤩🤩 Thanks Wynne! ❤️

  6. Such an idyllic spot, portrayed in that lake photo! Love the “wildlife” photos too! I hope the employee(s) who created the eye-catching LaCroix display earned a bonus. How clever!

    1. Isn’t that a cool display? It’s funny because it’s easier to see with a camera than a naked eye so I was delighted with how it came across!

  7. Your amazing summer adventures continue. So nice to see you all in the woods. The smile on the kids say it all! We’re looking forward to a visit this August too. You’ve gotten me even more excited.

    That shot of Cooper on his back with just pure joy on his face is beyond adorable. Made me smile widely over here at the gym!

  11. Childhood camping with twice as many kids. Brave moms in the wilderness to be sure.😁That LaCroix display is bright as can be, Wynne. Elicits “sunshine” from every angle!

  17. a joyous, uplifting set of pics — and the weather looks great too; my granddaughters come and visit regularly: it’s great having family around and doing things together 🙂

  26. That shot of the kids and Cooper is priceless. So’s the mannequin joke. Lots to love here (though I’m sure the comfort of your own bed probably tops the list for you).
