The Vacation Crashers!

The Vacation Crashers strike again! First we crashed Lincoln City and now we conquer an out of state vacation at Shasta Lake, California!

Our family is lucky enough to know Gene, Patty, Stephanie and Emma. Anyone who knows them, loves them. They have the most fun, the best smiles, huge and genuine hearts and more love than most families I know. Tucker, Addie and I were lucky enough to spend 5 days, 4 nights with this exceptional family on a beautiful lake, with a fast boat and a cooler of beer. The only thing missing was Matt, but after I got home tonight I told him we need to start planning for next year so he doesn't miss it.

It was Tucker and Addie's first time in the state of California. Addie's first time on a boat. Tucker and Addie's first swim in a lake (sad but true). And my first time driving alone in the car with the kids for 8.5 hours! They did a great job riding that long! I'm sort of on a Mommy-high where I feel like I can do anything and take them anywhere. I love it.

I have way too many pictures to share and I only have the pictures that were taken with my camera! This might have to be a mini-series of blogs to get all the fun in.

Thank you Gene, Patty, Stephanie and Emma for making this one unforgettable vacation. You are very dear friends of ours and we appreciate your incredible hospitality. Your friendship is a blessing in all our lives and we love you all so much. We look forward to our picture sharing date! I'M ON A BOAT!!!! :)
