Beach Camping

I realized that I never posted pics from our camping trip in Dana Point. It was our first 'camping' trip with the girls. And it was a major success. We camped with 4 other families. There were 10 kids in all. Ranging from 13 months to 7 years. It was pretty chaotic but loads of fun. Our campsites were in a square so the kids just got to run between the 4 sites having the time of their lives. We are already on the books for next year and I cannot wait.

All the kids were fascinated by the crabs in the water below.

It was so beautiful to wake up to this every morning.
We had perfect weather and a perfect time.

Looks like great times. I was reading while my twins were in the room. They could not understand why "those girls" were in their jeep. I then noticed the Barbie powerwheels jeep they own and love.
