"Tween Birthday Sleep Over"

Well I survived my daughter Mikayla's 12th birthday. She invited six of her friends for a slumber party. Craig took Savannah to my mom's to go swimming (Coward!) We started with snacks, then to Pizza then cake and lastly popcorn and a movie all the while giggles and laughter abound. They played games and sang Karaoke. I just sat back and watched 7 young girls having more fun imaginable. When Craig returned, he and Savannah retreated to the back room (where they stayed the rest of the night) and after the movie approx. 1:30am I retreated to the spare room exhausted while the girls layed in the sleeping bags playing there Nintendo Ds's till about 3:am. Oh to be young again!




"Mikayla, dreaming about her 13th birthday!"

More Bodega Bay

When we go to Bodega, there is one thing that is a must and that is "Crab Night" We go to the marina and get the crabs right off the boats. Our good friends Bill and PJ got us hooked on this tradition. YUM!














This trip Bill's brother & wife and two sisters came from Washington to join us. We had a ball. We had eight adults in the living/dining area and the kids had there own table in the bunk room at the rear of the rig. Plenty of room and YUMMY,YUMMY,YUMMY. I fixed pie's for desert, but gone before I could get off a shot!

Bodega Bay

One of our favorite places to go camping is "Bodega Bay" There are lots of tide pools to investigate. The girls have a blast. Oh and Craig too!

Savannah says "Wait up dad"



This is where we camp. Its called "Doran Beach". The nice thing about this campground is that we can get up in the morning and fly our kites or take a stroll down the beach or just sit and watch the boats go out.!
