July Camping

We camped twice in July. The first was on the 4th of July and the second was with friends!

July 4 we went to the parade with blue hair then headed to the campground!

Beach Day



We walked the dunes one day!

We visited the lighthouse another day.



The last day we try to get a swim in!

 Camping with friends is always fun.  The kids all play so well together.  They range in age from 11 - 3 years.


The older girls were making mermaids on each other

and searching for treasures.


 A walk on the pier.


The camp host had craft time and it was fantastic!  Graham crackers with blue "water" frosting with crushed graham crackers for the sand and goldfish swimming.



They forecast rain for 2 days straight, but we only had a few sprinkles!

The boys made a food truck one day at home!

Cort wrote his name in the sand during his t-ball game :)

Ty finished his t-ball season strong!


Fathers Day was in there somewhere. I tried to get a nice picture of Peter and the boys, but of course someone had to cry about it.  So our "nice Father's Day picture" turned out to be in our bathing suits with "Daddy" written in water squirt gun on the fence...  oh well.

Ella finished her gymnastics year really well!  

Lots more camping

We did one more camping trip in June and two more trips in July!

June - we went for a long weekend and it was fine.  There were a lot of mosquitos and a little rain.  The pool water was nice and warm but then the air was cool when you got out.  We watched a movie in the camper one afternoon.



 

 We had a few fire and did s'mores. One time Tripp was hand fed by daddy!





Movie time!
