Madison LOVED her first year at girls camp. The only thing she really said she missed while camping was her comfy bed. Nope, not the family... the bed.

Whale of a Run
This is the first year we've been back home in time from CA to go to "Whaling Days". Our kids participated in a run and Madison gave out candy and flyers in the parade. Carter even got a high five for his efforts.
REDWOODS ARE AMAZING
Shortly after our sandy beach romp we stopped for the night (freshly cleaned kids are in the hotel room above). We spent the next day exploring the Redwoods and it was unbelieveable. I couldn't capture the sheer scale of those trees very well with my camera, but if you haven't seen them in person- put that on your bucket list. My neck got a cramp from looking upwards in amazement and the kids could not stop gawking. Thanks to Jeremy who decided it was worth the extra time on the road trip to see this stunning sight.

Back up to WA by way of beach
We took the scenic drive back up to WA and stopped at a little beach near the Golden Gate Bridge to stretch our legs. We were foolish enough to tell the kids to try not to get wet...
We'll miss you Largey's... and POOL
The kids swam nearly every day we we in CA. And when they didn't get to they usually grumbled about it. Besides getting to visit with family I think swimming is their next favorite thing to do on vacation. Mine is playing games and seeing new sights.
Goodies and Grins
My mom bought some fun chocolate molds and we delved into candy making this week so we could enjoy eating treats while playing games at the clubhouse. I wish I had some of those goodies to eat now...
Hair we are...
Madison and I are sporting some new do's and posing before the Cali sunset. The boys are hanging out watching tv and enjoying some non-restrictive vacation time.
Gettin' Jiggy at Grandpa Don's
James discovered he loved dancing to the musical fish tunes at Grandpa Don's this summer. Someday when I learn how to upload video I'll have to put the "moves" on here (they're way better than the pictures).
