Over Memorial Day weekend, it was so beautiful outside, we decided to take the kids to Cowell to get a little sunshine, running and redwoods in.
On our way in, we happened to run into Jamilah and Brian (good friends we met through H. and A.)! They were taking a break from a Civil War re-enactment event next door at Roaring Camp and were just resting their dogs on a park bench just inside the loop trail!
The kids came equipped with finger flashlights which they used to light up the inside of the Fremont tree (the tree where John Fremont camped in during a storm). We settled in this area as our lunch spot. While the kids went from Fort 1 to Fort 2 (Fremont tree and neighboring tree, respectively), we set out the sandwiches, cherries and berries….
Cameron was tired even before we set out on our walk and she had to go back to the car with Tom at first. But, she decided it would be more fun to chillax with the rest of us than just sit in the car with daddy, so she bucked up and rejoined us!
After the park, we went to H. and A’s house where they set up the inflatable pool for some nice, splashy fun.
Cameron had sacked out on the way home from the park, so she missed the swim part, but when she arrived with Tom, it was time to use the pool water to water the plants and she was alllll over helping with that!
And, here’s sweet Chloe, just gazing out at all of the kids doing their thing!
