Millcreek Canyon & Cawabunga Bay

Since we didn't plan any family vacations this year other than the trip to California to visit my family earlier this year, we thought we would have a mini one. Ben took a day off in the middle of the week and we made some plans. To start off we went up Millcreek Canyon and found the perfect spot for a picnic dinner. Tyson loves to go up into the mountains and have campfires, so we had a campfire where we roasted hot dogs and marshmallows. It's funny because Ben and I aren't huge fans of hot dogs and I am the only one who will eat a marshmallow once it's roasted, but we didn't go for the food and we had a good time! (Next time we will plan a little better and have tin foil dinners or cook something yummy in the dutch oven).

Tyson loved throwing rocks in the water and exploring with dad, while Karissa hung out with me in her sling. She loves being outside too.








The next day we headed to Cawabunga Bay and had a blast on the water slides and the lazy river. I was a little worried that Tyson wouldn't be able to ride many of the slides, but there were quite a few that he could go on and they weren't little "baby" slides either. Karissa hung with me most of the time on the lazy river. At one point everyone had to get out of the water due to a lightening storm that was passing by, but it wasn't long before we were playing some more. We all had so much fun, we are looking forward to going back!!!
