We finally got to do some real camping. It was a short trip and last minute, but very fun. We ventured up the South Fork of the Smith River with Matt, Amie and Acacia and had a great time.

Caleb was happy to just throw rocks in the river the whole time, but the kids also swam, watched the fish and dug with toys in the sand.
The boys slept in the tent and we slept under the stars. There were a couple of good shooting stars that night, and we could see a lot more than we can on the foggy coast.
We had a couple of nice cliffs to jump off of into the deep, bright blue water. The river was clear and gorgeous with large rocks and bedrock.

Caleb never wandered far from his blankey and it was in need of a good wash when we got home.

I don't have to bend down too far to be at Nolan's height anymore!

All of the kids spent some time playing in the river. It was a little cold, but hard to resist.
