Our Weekend Getaway

Anyone who knows me knows that I am not a natural camper. I have struggled with that my whole marriage with Sean because he LOVES it and he always wants to go. I kick and scream the whole time, from the packing all the way to the destination spot. I always think I am going to be in the middle of nowhere and something is going to happen or I will just have a horrible time. Well, this time was no exception. We had made plans to go camping with our dear friends Will and Beth. Well, the week we were about to go, the stuff with Julianna was going on and I was feeling anxious about going. I thought it would be very unsafe to go in the middle of nowhere with her breathing and it did not make me excited about going. I told Sean I didn't want to go, but he didn't take that lying down. Thursday came around and Julianna seemed to be doing tons better, so I felt that it was my turn to oblige my camp starved husband. So, we packed the car up and headed out of the 102 heat of Sacramento and drove to the coast of California. Once the temperature dropped about 40 degrees, my mood started to change and I got excited for the weekend adventure of traveling to a new destination. It was so fun. It was great to be near the beach, even though if we put our swimming gear on we would have died of hypothermia. It was fun to explore and be with our great friends, Will, Beth, Rayna and Claudio who were all amazing with my children. They took such great care of them and in a way was a vacation from being a full time camping mom. I am so glad we went and experienced it. Here are some photos of our Weekend Getaway!
