Family Outing

On Saturday we went for a drive out to Clay Creek. It was so warm and beautiful. We stopped at the side of the road and walked down to the Siuslaw River. While there we saw a dragonfly which M was able to get a few good pictures of. Then we headed to Clay Creek Campground and played in the creek for a while. The kids loved it, only wish I had thought to bring their swimsuits. It is a really nice little area and I think when the kids are a little older we will take them camping there.

The dragonfly.

This tree was pretty neat. Right behind K there is a large spot
where the branches meet that makes a great spot to sit in.
You could read a book, watch the water, even fish from it.

Here we are at Clay Creek. K wanted to put her feet in the cool water
so we all took off our shoes and socks and walked around in it.
It was a really hot day, around 95 degrees, so the cool water felt great!

M took L out to sit on the rock and K followed behind.

I stood on this flat rock and laughed as the little fish tickled my toes.

My lovely family enjoying the beautiful scenery. We had a wonderful day.
