Wyatt's First Backpacking Trip!

This weekend we made the long trip to head out to Houston to be a part of Wyatt's very first backpacking/camping trip!  Wyatt is the new Gosling family member and he is only 3 months old! When we arrived we gave Wyatt a present from Auntie Kristin and Uncle Ed - his first camping outfit!
In case you can't read it, the outfit reads "My 1st Camping Trip"
Of course we had to play around a little with Wyatt before taking off...

Happy baby!

We headed out to Lake Somerville State Park for a nice 3 mile hike-in backpacking trip.  The weather was absolutely gorgeous with highs in the 70s and lows in the 50s!  We hiked to our campsite along the lake and enjoyed some of Ed's famous tuna quesadillas for dinner.

Wyatt was definitely ready for dinner...

The next morning we relaxed and had some pancakes and "ghetto mochas" (instant coffee mixed with instant hot chocolate) and enjoyed showing Wyatt a little more of the wilderness.

After backpacking we did a little shopping and then said goodbye to mom and dad (Christina and Paul) and Wyatt and hello to Christy, Rohit and Eshaan!  We enjoyed a fantastic dinner of Lupe Tortilla (yay for good Mexican!) and really enjoyed catching up.

Monday morning we left the 70 deg temps of Houston and headed to the airport to take the long flight back to Reno and then the even longer drive back to Klamath Falls. 
Back in our winter wonderland!
