In mid July we went camping at Sunset Beach in Watsonville with Nana and Papa Schmidt, Uncle Steve, Aunt Ashley, Tyler, Uncle Allen, Aunt Megan, and Aunt Natalie! We missed Uncle Trevor who was on his mission (and still is) and Aubrey who was at Lake Powell (brat)!
We decided that we are going to do a camping trip every summer together, so this was our first anual trip! On the first day after everyone was settled, we drove to Capitola and walked around the little town.
It's so cute! We checked out the beach there, then went to the best deli/bakery in the world!
That night while we made dinner, Justin and the boys found some cool trees to climb near our camp spot. They had a lot of fun being little monkeys!
Daddy and Ryan got up pretty easily, but Austin was having a hard time!
So Daddy reached down for him, and Mommy lifted him up! He was a lot happier then!
The next few days we just enjoyed the beach! It was beautiful!!!

LOVE the two little beach bums!!!
The beach was littered with Sanddollars! They were everywhere! Megan taught Ryan who taught mommy what live sanddollars look like when they are alive compared to when they were dead. We walked the beach and gathered quite a collection of them!
On one of our many walks down the beach we noticed that there were a ton of seagulls in one area. We decided that they were having a meeting and Ryan decided that "we should interrupt their meeting!" It was too funny to watch the boys chasing after them. Especially since Austin was only in his underwear thanks to a huge wave that soaked his shorts.
We spent all of Saturday at the beach, and this time the boogie boards came out!
Ryan headed out for his first experience on the boogie board!
He LOVED it! He would stand up once he was beached and head back out yelling "Yeah Baby! WoooHooo! Let's do that again!" Ryan's coined terms when he's having a great time!
Austin decided he was certainly missing out on some fun, so he found himself a boogie board and headed out to hit the waves!
Since Daddy was helping Ryan, who did Austin turn to?! Uncle Allen of course!
He wasn't too sure about it and only went out the one time! Once the boys were done, the guys headed out to watch the dolphins swim right by them while they waited for the best waves!
We spent the rest of the afternoon playing in the sand...
...playing games...
...and flying kites!!!

They thought this was so cool!
We had an amazing time camping with our family and can't wait for the tradition to continue next year!!! Love you all!!!
