Madi's first night after a sleep at the campsite - it was a little different for her, she kept waking up and saying "light on, light on" so we had to keep a small reading light on for her (Pretty much the whole week).
Madi is eating Corn Pops - She quite liked them and she kept calling them "balls" which is her favorite shape/object still.
There is my curly little cutie!!
First day at the beach and all went well, Madi went on the beach and barked orders at us - More water, dig here, dig there, blah blah blah - Thank goodness her big sisters like to keep her happy.
(Above) You can see Daddy on the left just entering the water and Jillian just past him. Dani is playing with Madi on the beach (and my cousin Natalie and her son way in the back, you will see more of them later)
More digging
I had to take beach photos to show she actually went on the beach on her own accord.
(Below) Jillian is in the water flying a kite. Hard to see but she is there.
(below) No kite, but there is Jill and Daddy.
My cousin Natalie and her family - Marcus to the left and Paul in the middle (from a land down under ~ inside joke!!)
Marcus enjoying the water. He said to his Mom that this was the best camping trip ever. Probably because she gave him a lot of indenpence.
Thanks again to Natalie and Paul for taking the girls to the ampitheatre show in the POURING RAIN and sticking through until they got to roast their marshmallows. How nice of them was that. Sorry Paul the rain dampened our plans and there was no trailer a rocking so no worry of interrupting with a little knocking.
Paul and Marcus hitting the water.
Randy and Jill below
Randy (not pictured) playing ball with Paul - He finally had someone to play with too!! Everyone had a great time.
(Below) Natalie trying to make nice with Madi (since she is soooo shy). Natalie found rocks for her and Madi found a friend for the week.
Marcus digging in the sand.
Paul doing what he did best all week when he hit the beach (he did play a lot but he claims the fresh air makes him really tired or maybe he ate a vegimite sandwich - another inside joke)
Randy what he does best!!
(Oma and Opa please give your son crap the next time you speak to him - he got another sun burn and I asked him to put it on but OH NO!! Look who had a close call on his nose but didn't put sun screen on again)
The gang!
Natalie finding more rocks for Madison(below) Our rocking campsite (number not posted due to people wanting to know and we dont want to share the best site in case a cousin or another family member might try and book it over us because we wouldn't do that to our family!)
Madi digging in sand and getting all dirty. I dont know how many babywipes I went through but seemed to have to wipe her down 3-4 times a day.
Jill keeping her sister busy while Daddy and Mommy try and get stuff done.
Jill always taking care of her baby sister. She was also "in charge" of Marcus and Daniella when they went on bike rides. She quite liked that.

Jill, Baxter, and Madi. I would like to mention that Baxter is the best camping dog. Except the first day where he was a ball of nerves and cried every time we moved he was fine the rest and would never bark while we were away at the beach. He would just look around at who was walking by. He was as glad to get home as Mommy was. He was exhausted from not sleeping ALL day. He is back into his routine. I think on Saturday when we got home, he sleept from 1pm to the next day and getting up only to eat and pee. He was done.
Close up of my pumpkin!
All the girls hamming it up for the camera in the tent trailer.
Wow, time flies when you are having fun. Besides the mosquito bites and cuts Mommy has from Dani crashing into her, and the constant "Mommy hug, Mommy hug" from Madi, and exhaustion we all faired okay. We all had moments but it was a great week. We took some great bike rides, saw horses, and a deer. It was nice to be together all as a family.
