July 4th camping trip

So for the holiday weekend we took Alex camping for the first time! He loved all the activity of the campground (which was full), but had a very hard time going to sleep because of it. It rained on us all day Saturday, but it made for some good time to chit chat and play cards with family. We went camping with Andy's cousin Neil and his family, as well as Pete, Nat, and Kelli (Pete's girlfriend). We had a good time despite the rain and on Sunday we had the beautiful sunny weather we had expected all weekend. So the few pictures below are from Sunday at the reservoir beach. The first picture is of Cameron, Neil and Crista's son who just turned one the beginning of June.

When Alex saw the waves (made by the boats on the lake), he got very excited and ran to them. We were spoiled in California with the white, soft sandy beaches....this beach was made of small pebbles! But this water was warm :)
