Carpinteria Fun

My mom's side of the family has a reunion type vactation every couple years camping at Carpinteria Beach and we went once again this summer :) I love it there and Steven got to come this year so it made it that much better eventhough my cousin Weston had to miss it since he is on his mission. We had a lot of fun at the beach and in town and just chilling around the campfire. It was fun to see the extended family and catch up with everyone and just spend time there.

All the youngins were fun to see play. One of the more entertaining moments was when Jonny shined the laser pointer and we told the little kids it was a firefly and they chased it around :D Also Steven and I took little Kent on a walk around the campsite and a Ranger asked us how old we were because he thought Kent was ours. We were kind and told him he was my cousin not our son. Although we should have told him our ages and left it at that ;)

We did all of the classic Carpinteria traditions visitng the candy store and beach shop and of course Fosters Freeze. And enjoyed the beach a ton! We even caught a few good waves boogie boarding the few times I got in the water (it was a bit cold for me). It was loads of fun and I was sad to go but it was nice to sleep in my bed and step out of the shower and not be dirty right away:)
