Cultus Lake Camping Trip

Every summer, my parents and siblings get together for a weekend camping trip. Over the past few years, we've gone to several different places, and this year we decided to try Cultus Lake, just across the border. We stayed for 3 nights, spending our days fishing, kayaking, biking, and just enjoying our time together.

Kim and Thane brought along 2 kayaks and a stand-up paddle board so we spent a fair amount of time out on the water. Elias is into fishing right now and both he and Malachi brought their fishing poles along; Elias caught several fish and seemed to enjoy teaching his cousins how to fish!

It started to rain while we were swimming!

I tried stand-up paddleboarding for the first time...so much fun!!!

Haleigh tripped and went running to Annaliese to console her!

Despite Kyle and Thane going on a bike ride based on a map of Cultus Lake, OR...Kim, Kelsey and I going for a run where Kim got stung by a bee and ending up with a swollen face...and Haleigh and Lydia not understanding that bedtime means staying in your sleeping bag and going to sleep...and a two-hour wait to get back across the border on our drive home...I think we all had a great time!
