Camping Trip August 2012

I am a little behind. I am going to try and catch up before our new baby is born in about 5 weeks. Last summer was a lot of fun. We really enjoyed being in our new house and being in the great northwest. We loved the mild weather. It cools down quite a bit at night here and it didn't do that back in Tennessee. We took a family camping trip to the beach. It was a lot of fun. We had really nice weather. The kids loved the ocean, although it was a little too cold for swimming. The kids (minus Shirley) did wade in the water. Shirley broke his foot a couple of weeks before the trip and had a cast. It was not fun trying to keep it clean camping, and keeping the sand out while on the beach. My Grandma joined us and it was so nice having her with us. Everyone really enjoyed riding the go carts. It was fun. There is also nothing like waking up and sitting in front of a campfire. It was really cute when Shirley shared his peach with James. I also love the picture of the three oldest holding hands in the ocean.
