Me and six of the kids went beach camping!
It was our last summer vacation before school starts.
Max didn't really want to go and Danny had to work
We first met my dad for lunch and played at
San Clemente State Beach.
Me, Grandpa Ernie and Jane
We got all set up on our own!
With two tents.
This new pop-up tent is awesome to set up!
Not so easy folding up.
The only thing we cooked was s'mores!
We ate out for all other meals, which made it much easier to camp!
Van and Clark.
Van and Hanna were my fire starters.
Surfin Donuts is our traditional must have!
Mostly because it's Danny's favorite.
I ate one for Danny this time.
Poor Daisy can't have donuts.
Cute Jane said, "take my picture" Then Daisy wanted her pic too.
Frisbee was a hit.
Hanna and Van.
Hanna, Van and Walt have Frisbee skills.
Daisy is so good with Jane.
Buried in the sand.
Clark was sad he wasn't buried with the big kids.
So I buried Walt and Clark.
Jane's turn!
I think this is the first year she got this sandy.
He's happy now.
Jane playing at the beach.
Jane running from the waves.
Me and Clark built this sand castle together.
My cousin Heidi was staying at the hotel in San Clemente!
We met up with them one evening.
We saw 4 dolphins swimming together!
Jane says, "Come back, there are sharks in the water"
Playing at the beach is so much fun!
Van showing Jane all his sand crabs.
The little kids helped bury the big kids.
The waves were too big.
Sleeping on an air mattress at 41
with kids is very uncomfortable.
Last night beach camping.
S'mores for dessert.
Before heading back home to Vegas we stopped at dad and Debi's
for dinner and swimming!
