Camping in Tofino

This year, like every year we went camping in Tofino for a little getaway. This year Mom and Bob were able to join us and we had a great time.
Mom was able to take a great family picture of us.
Raeya played with the tarp while Aidan and I set up the tent.

Once the tent was up Raeya came in and couldn't keep her eyes open anymore after a long day of travelling.

Playing in her playpen in the tent...it only lasted one night. It was REALLY cold out.

Mackenzie Beach...in our opinion it's the best one to stay at because there is no public access. Sandy beaches for as far as the eye can see.



Just relaxing on the beach in Raeya's beach tent. It was a little windy so the tent was perfect.

Too much fun!!

Raeya enjoying her first fire with Daddy.



Yeah....Nana and Bob get to camp with us!!!

I love my Nana

It was chilly out, Raeya was in her touque most of the trip as you'll see :o)

So hungry....must eat....can't move.

All ready to head to the windy beach.

Just enjoying the view and the fresh air.



Ok...she was a little tired of the carrier so Aidan decided to carry her.

The first night was so cold, Raeya and I got to sleep in the truck for the rest of our trip. It was nice and toasty warm.

I let Aidan sleep until 7 and then it was his turn to hangout with Raeya in the morning. Really what else do you do with an 8 month old at 6am when you're camping so you don't wake up your neighbours.
All ready for breakfast
Raeya's first pancake. Nana made it for her.
Overall it was a fantastic trip, a little cold but fantastic none the less. It's amazing how all the stress you may be carring dissappears the minute you step foot on the beach. Camping with a baby adds a new dynamic and a bit of an adjustment when it comes to nap time but we can't wait until next years trip.
