Banks Lake


We just returned from 5 nights, 6 days at glorious Banks Lake in Eastern WA.  One of my favorite places of all time.  We went with family this year, including my niece Mira.  We were missing our friends (Elisabeth and Sherman) who have been a staple for years, but they are off living a dream and traveling the country.  It's hard to be mad at that!
We spent most days at "Waikiki beach."  Our normal sandy beach behind Steamboat Rock.  The water is shallow and warm and the beach is sandy and big.  Perfect for relaxing and playing games!
Kennedy loved the water this year.  She was in the water nonstop trying to keep up with Rylee and Carson.
The relaxation station was a hit as usual.
We went to La Presa one night for some delicious Mexican food and margaritas.  Always so good!
The kids went tubing every day, multiple times a day.  
Kennedy even went tubing for the first time.  She loved it!
Rylee was all about the water sports this year.  She did some kneeboarding and even tried wakeboarding!  
We played holy balls quite a bit.  It's a perfect beach game!  Carson and Grandma ended up winning the championship.  Who would have thought?!?
Harley (Jon and Mandy's new dog) came along for the first time.  She is a great beach dog!  She was pretty chill for the most part.  She loved napping in her beach chair!
The kids spent lots of time with the Grandparents.  💙
They ate a lot of ice cream from the campground store.  
Coulee got to come on the boat on our last day.  She loved it and did great.  She even went swimming!
The kids did some cliff jumping in the cutt.
Banks Lake is always an amazing time!  Every year brings new and special memories.  Can't wait for next year!
