Lake Tahoe-4th of July, 2013

Ava, Behan, Veneer, and I took the car trip over the mountain for the 4th.  We got to stay 3 nights and had a fun-filled time hanging out with the family.  Ava loved swimming in Lake Tahoe, even though it was freezing.  She enjoyed the fireworks for about 5 minutes and then was bored, ha! Happy 4th of July!!!!

KOA-Santa Cruz

In June, we had a great time camping at this KOA.  They had all sorts of fun stuff for kids! We also found an amazing BBQ place where Steve ate the biggest piece of meat I have ever seen.

Family Day at Gilroy Gardens

Ava and I kicked off summer with a trip to Gilroy Gardens. We went with Behan, Chris, Veneer, Roxanne, Nana, and Pop-Pops.  We met up with the Noteware's too. We rode lots of rides and had a fun day!

Lake Don Pedro~Father's Day!

For Father's Day this year, we took a three day camping trip to Don Pedro.  Steve got to try out his new hammock and camp stove.  Ava made friends with Orly. We had tons of food, a dance party, rented a pontoon boat and ski boat, and had the best smores ever!
