8 weeks: Survived our first campout!

The highlight of this week was introducing Trey to Grandpa Doug and Great-Grandma Alice.  Doug had not yet met Trey because he spent his summer in Jordan. 

 
We took Trey to Prineville this past weekend for his first Clark campout.  Clarks come from far and wide to gather every summer and spend time together.  It is pretty amazing how this family makes this weekend a priority!  Alison came all the way from Colorado; and Doug and Carmen; Andrew; and Melissa, Ryan, & Kainoa came from California.  Tad, Tanya & their kids; Alice; Duane; Bob & Caleb; Albert, Heidi, & Javan; Toni & Dave; and Rick & Vernie came from Washington.  The only Oregonians were us, Bobbi & Karl, and Ben & his son.  Hope I'm not missing anyone! 

Grandma Alice was kind enough to let us stay in the cabin with her since we had a newborn.  It was fabulous to have a real bed, bathroom, and air conditioning.  I don't know if we would have been able to make it otherwise.  I got in a lot of walks around the campground trying to get Trey to sleep, and Randy got in a little bit of fishing in the Prineville Reservoir.

I just love these pictures with Grandpa Doug and Trey.

Other happenings this week were a great visit from Sarah Long, meeting Sarah from work and Audrey's new baby Maya, and more visits and meals with friends.  I am getting more used to being home with Trey during the day and we are trying to figure out our routines.

Accomplishments this week were finishing another book and...that's about it.  Plans for next week include moving Trey to his own room and starting with cloth diapers.
