California dreamin'

Last week Greg bought us a camping trailer from an auction in California. So, we decided to make a road trip and go pick it up. Greg's parents came with us to make sure everything worked on the trailer. They bought a truck at the auction as well.

The drive was so long. As you can see, the kids got very creative trying to keep busy. Don't ask me why Ethan has underwear on his head. I'm just not sure. As for Ashton, she balanced this straw on her lip for a very very long time. Yes, my kids are so talented. As for Ty....well he slept most of the way. Thank heavens.

Here's the new trailer. Yea!! We love it! We ended up camping on the beach for a couple of nights before heading home. We had so much fun!

The kids LOVE the beach. Ty loved wandering and throwing the sand. This was his first REAL trip to the beach that he will remember. He was too little to remember the beach in Costa Rica last fall.

More pics of the fam on the beach!!

Here is Ashy with her new friend Shay who she met at the beach. We had a bonfire with Shay and her mom on the beach and roasted marshmallows. They exchanged addresses, Her first penpal!

On the way home we had to try really hard to keep Ty busy so we kept passing Grandma and Grandpa and waved. By the end of the trip Ty had it down. We laugh because he still does it whenever we roll the windows down. All in all we had an awesome trip to Cali and can't wait to take our new trailer camping this summer!
