We went camping in an atmospheric river. Eric went ahead to set up. Kids and I followed with dinner. When we got there he had us stay in the car while he used the car mats to get us in the moho. The site was squishy and water was coming up through three layers of outdoor mats.
We ate dinner, watched TV and went to bed early :) The rain sounded amazing.
We woke up to sun!!
Wild roses all in bloom along the acean. I still can't smell though. Sigh.
These two love their stroller rides.
I don't remember the kids ever loving it ;)
A new camping couch, puppies, naps and the ocean through those trees. Heavenly.
The boys are in an awkward preteen age. Not playing with toys, done with play grounds. Forest exploring is so last year. They don't/can't ride bikes. They both sat around the fire willingly but they aren't very chatty.
These two found lots to do.
Lili and Jade went to throw axes.
Lili is freakishly good at this.
This never gets old. So much cuteness.
Luk gets to chew bubble gum at no rules day. We took bubble gum on an evening walk and collectively tried to teach him how to blow bubbles. He didn't figure it out. So the lessons continue at home. We let Kai chew gum with tons of reminders not to swallow. He chewed and dpit out! However he didn't enjoy the pressure of remembering not to swallow so he says he's done with gum.
