Byeman Family Camping Trip: Winthrop, WA

This past week we camped at Pearrygin Lake State Park for the annual Byeman family camping trip. There were ~45 people camping during the week! We had a potluck dinner on Sunday night and even more folks drove in just for it!. The whole crew is pictured below: (you can click on the picture to make it bigger...if you actually want to see our faces!)

The temperatures were in the upper 90's for most of the week...so needless to say we spent lots of time at the lake as well as in Jaelyn's kiddie pool. Thank goodness Oma & Opa have a 5th wheeler that has air conditioning that we could also cool off in!

Jaelyn loved playing in the water...by the end of the week she was walking into the lake all by herself (well, with me right beside her!). She enjoyed throwing rocks into the lake as well as watching the ducks/dogs swim by her.

Jaelyn thought Ellie's little boat was such fun to play in!


Here is a picture of the 6 little girls...all under the age of 3! From left to right: Alexis, Alyssa, Mya (in front), Ellie, Elisabeth, & Jaelyn. This picture taking experience was really quite funny. After Jaelyn starting crying Alexis & Alyssa chimed in as well! Too funny!

Photo op of our family! We got to celebrate Oma's 60th birthday (a little early!) at The Duck Brand Cantina Restaurant in Winthrop.

A camping trip is not a success unless Jaelyn gets dirty! Jaelyn sure loves to play in the dirt. I think she specifically seeks it out to play in!

Just a cute picture!

I think we have a cowgirl on our hands! The ice cream store in town (that we frequented a couple times!) had these fun "horses" to ride. She definitely enjoyed riding them!
