River Ridge Resort Camping Trip

We took our first camping trip this past weekend. We went to River Ridge Resort in Stanwood. We took a fifth wheel camper from Josh's work. My parents stayed with us for two nights, and Adrienne also brought a friend along with her.
Adisynne loves to cuddle lately. She gives what we call "wrap around hugs". She puts her little arms around your neck, and hugs you so hard. Here she is giving Nana a great big hug.

I had bought Adisynne new sun glasses, and she decided that she didn't like them and wouldn't keep them on her face. Avery keeps them on just fine, so they are now hers!
Adisynne out on the patio. She loved camping. She loves being outside, so this was right up her alley!
On Saturday, one of the activities was a blow up water slide. The girls had a great time on it. They played for about an hour and a half on it. Adisynne even tried it once. She made it to the slide, got wet on the slip and slide part, and then wanted out. The water was freezing.
Adrienne on the play ground. (That's a heart tattoo on her cheek!)
Adisynne loved the playground. She thinks she is a lot bigger than she is though! Adrienne pushing Adisynne on the swing. I know it looks like she is pushing her really high, but it didn't seem like it at the time. Adisynne was having a good time; she was giggling the whole time.


On Memorial Day, the campground held a Memorial Day service. This is what Avery picked out to wear to the service!
Avery and Daddy. Adisynne and Avery both slept great while camping. Avery slept all night every night we were there! Adisynne always sleeps well, but it was nice to see that camping didn't throw her sleeping off. Overall, we had a very positive experience camping with our three children.

Adrienne and her friend Shelby. These girls were in their bathing suits from the time they woke up until the time they went to bed!
The campground had craft activities on Saturday and Sunday. They made key chains, cooler cups, foam visors, bracelets, and necklaces.
On Saturday afternoon, they participated in a scavenger hunt. Adrienne was knocking on camper doors trying to get everything for the hunt. She was funny. She took her scavenger hunting duties serious.
On Sunday evening, they went to the clubhouse and watched the movie Hoot with a bunch of other kids, and also enjoyed popcorn!! They kept very busy all weekend.
On Monday morning, there was a bike parade. Kids decorated their bikes and paraded around the camp ground.



On Saturday evening, there was a band that played at the Pavilion. Adrienne and Adsisynne were hilarious. They were busting a move! Adrienne and her friend left early, but Adisynne kept on dancing. She had everyone laughing and pointing at her, and she was loving every minute on it. Josh and I felt bad when it was time to go because she was having such a fun time.

Adisynne had marshmallow all over her face. She approved of smores!

It looks like you had a great time. It must be nice to use a camper that big without having the payment that goes along with it! Very cool!
