Summer Bucket List - Camping!

And now a break from our regularly scheduled pregnancy postings. But things are moving right along on that front - just around 16 wks and growing! More from that story very very soon! 

Seeing as August, and thusly what people would typically call "The Summer," is ending next week I guess I better catch ya up with the SBL. Although some of these bad boys are going to have trail into September - which where we live is hot enough to consider summer anyway ;)

So last weekend we had the pleasure of camping with some of our wonderful friends, their adorable kids, and their big oaf of a dog. It was exactly the relaxing, do-nothing, eat good stuff weekend we needed.  

We headed out of town saturday morning and spent the day eating, splashing with babies, toes in the sand, soaking up the beauty and the out in the middle of nowhere-ness.  

Sunday was a repeat with more s'mores, more splashing, more squishy babies, more sunshine...I think you get the picture.  

But in case you don't here's a few to fill you in:

Yay Nature!

Buster the dodo lovey dog


Dirty camping faces

She looks good with a baby doesn't she?

Baby carrying practice, Check!
So much cute-ness!

On top of crossing off Camping Weekend, we got to cross off S'mores, and the sky was so clear and beautiful I think I get to cross off Stargazing as well! Next weekend we head back down to San Diego to watch some dear friends get married and soak up some San Diego sun and some parent hugs.  We're also hoping to cross off a few more of our summer bucket list items!

Happy Summering mis amigos!  Enjoy the last Summer hurrahs!
