Vacay to Birch Bay

This year was the our first annual vacation with the Goo-Goo's and Uncle's. Dao has three sisters, two are married, and one is engaged. They don't have any kids, so when we get together our girls are spoiled with attention! At a family gathering we were all talking about camping, and we decided we should plan a trip together. We scheduled it for Dao's birthday weekend in early October, so we vetoed camping and decided to rent a house/cabin. Xuan found a cute little place right across from the beach and we had a blast!

Uncle Dan declared it a TV free weekend, but we still used our ipods and cell phones a little.

Uncle Dan says Payton is a natural horn player!

We got up early to take advantage of low tide, but only found one teeny, tiny, crab. The dogs loved playing on the beach, too! We had game nights (and days), enjoyed the beach, took a walk to the local candy shop, flied kites, did a couple of low tide walks, watched the sunset, and roasted marshmallows around the campfire. 

The sunset was beautiful. Kaylin and Daddy wanted to get a little closer to the water to enjoy it.

It was not quite breezy enough to fly kites, but they sure did try to get them up in the air.

We each took turns making meals and cleaning up, so it was stress free.

We had so much fun that we wanted to stay another night!

Thank you so much Goo-Goo Linh and Uncle Brian, Goo-Goo B and Uncle Rob, and Goo-Goo Xuan and Uncle Dan. These are memories that the girls will have for a lifetime!
We love spending time with you!
