First Camping Trip Of The Summer


This weekend we went camping with three other families (8 adults and 10 kids total) at a campground in the redwoods along the Eel River north of Garberville. We had SO much fun! It was SUPER hot, there were tons of mosquitoes, the kids were filthy, and the drinks were flowing!

Our friends all have campers/trailers, so they kept us well fed (we provided s'mores, chips, lunch stuff, hot cocoa, etc.) and less stressed about hauling all of our camping gear up and back. Without your help, we would not have been so at ease. Thanks, Friends!

We saw this neat cloud on the drive up there but a minor memory card mishap caused me to lose the best picture of it. While this picture is good, it doesn't really do the cloud justice. Very interesting, though!

LOVE the bathing suit/rain boots look... VERY CHIC!

Ready to hit the river!

Nappin' in the hammock... B broke the other hammock... Canvas ripped right off the hook! Sorry, Schmitts! I'm surprised you still want to be our friends, what with the window incident and all...

Bad hair day?

Boys, Beer, Barbecue... Enough said...

Parting is such sweet sorrow...

And they were asleep withing 20 minutes...
We'll see you next month at the coast, Friends! Who's bringing the Sangria? I'll bring the red plastic cups!
