Some family fun

Well, our goal this summer is to camp, camp, and camp some more. So we took our first opportunity of the season to camp in Bodega Bay at Doran Beach. The day we left it was 100 degrees, but by the time we got to our spot it was in the low 60's, a bit damp and cool. It's amazing the different climates in our state! The next day our friends, The Mannion's joined us. Then as a bonus, we made friends with some fellow campers who get this, live down the street from us in Rocklin and attend a ward in our building. What are the chances.

While we were on our camp-out there was an RV that had two skull and cross bones flags. I had convinced Josh that they were pirates. So the next morning when I walked passed the gentleman staying there I told him Josh thought he was a pirate. The man was real friendly and wanted me to pass along the fact that they were friendly pirates. Later in the day we walked by and the man saw us and came out of his trailer saying "Ahoy Maties." He continued in pirate banter and man did it make Josh's trip. Josh wanted to know about Captain Hook and the pirate answered his questions. I think we started something for that couple because they told me they were going to start to carry gold coins. Pretty funny.

Here are a few of my favorite photos:

Parker: Hey Addie, would you like a cupcake?
Addie: Gee, I don't know Parker, I am trying to watch my girlish figure.
Parker: Oh come on, I'll share one with you.

Addie: Alright, I guess.

Parker: Now open wide, it's really delicious.
Addie: Mmmh!

Parker: So, what do you think? Delicious?
Addie: Wait let me lick the frosting off my lips first... oh yeah that was delicious!

Dave found a starfish and Chloe just picked it right up. Pretty cool!

We saw crabs, starfish, and many other sea creatures. They were fun to look at.

Parker snaked a piece of pork right off the table.

My handsome Joshie-o.

A new hat.

Me and Pavo, I had to keep my ears covered. If they get cold, it takes forever for them to warm up.

Look at those legs.
