Family Reunion, Beach Camping, San Diego Fun








We have had a lot of fun the last couple of weeks! First we went beach camping at Carpinteria State Beach. We went for a Willardson Family reunion. The Willardsons are Andrew's mom's family. We had SO much fun! Andrew has an incredicble, awesome, hilarious family! We played at the beach, did a little shopping, played games, had treats, and laughed and laughed around the campfire. Jenna did really well on the way down as long as one of us sat back there with her so she knew she wasn't alone. We drove to Vegas the first night and stayed with Andrew's Dad's sister Margie and her family, it was fun to meet cousins I had not met before.
While camping, Jenna slept like a rock in the tent. Even when the older kids were running around and being loud. I was really grateful she did so well. This was her first time camping and she was great! I love my awesome, go with the flow baby! :) My and Andrew's anniversary was on the Wednesday we were there, so we put Jenna to bed at about 7 pm and went on a bike ride along the beach while Andrew's parents stayed near Jenna in case she needed anything. It was relaxing and fun. After the reunion, we went to Andrew's parents house in San Diego for Andrew's cousin, Dan's, wedding reception. We played in the pool, played games at night and just relaxed. The reception was awesome. There was a family dinner the night before as well. Dan and Ann are so in love. So cute. All in all it was a great summer vacation. Now, time for school!
